Scaffolding Plugin Error

[Jonathan Putney]

Testing out 2.3.0.RC1 and wondering if anyone else is seeing this same issue.

| Error Compilation error: startup failed:
Compile error during compilation with javac.
/Users/putneyj/grails-apps/ntms/target/work/plugins/scaffolding-2.0.0.RC1/src/java/org/codehaus/groovy/grails/scaffolding/view/ScaffoldedGroovyPageView.java:82: error: cannot find symbol
                request.setAttribute(GrailsLayoutDecoratorMapper.RENDERING_VIEW, Boolean.TRUE);
                       ^
  symbol:   method setAttribute(String,Boolean)
  location: variable request of type HttpServletRequest

I keep receiving that error every time I try to run or compile the app.

That's a weird one, ServletRequest.setAttribute(String, Object) is a valid (and very old) method. You must have a plugin that's contributing something funky - does the output of dependency-report show an unusual version of the servlet API jar?

If you can reproduce in a small test application please run "grails bug-report" and and attach that zip to a JIRA issue at http://jira.grails.org/browse/GPSCAFFOLD

I got this exact error and resolved it by removing

compile ":scaffolding:2.0.1"

from BuildConfig.groovy

Ok, so removing the scaffolding plugin maybe isn't the best idea... so after some more research and experimenting... I discovered that the version in the scaffold plugin was the wrong version. I'm upgrading a 2.3.7 grails app to 2.5.6.

Perhaps your versions are incorrect, too. I discovered the correct version by creating a new grails app and inspecting BuildConfig.groovy.
