The eventConfigureTomcat is not invoked in Grails 2.3. How to config tomcat in grails 2.3 development environment?

Question

I created _Events.groovy in script directory then added code below:

eventConfigureTomcat = {tomcat ->
    println \"Tomcat.......................         


        

Answer 1

It appears that you can update the Tomcat plugin in Grails 2.3 to:

build ":tomcat:7.0.55"

This includes the fix for the jira issue that @chubbsondubs linked above.
It also seems to be fixed in the tomcat plugin 8.0.14.
