Grails 2.3.0 upgrade issue with windows slashes

5
votes

While upgrading an existing application (recently upgraded, and working, with Grails 2.2.4), I upgraded the common module (referred to as myApp-common) used in the two components of the application. This proceeded smoothly, but when I attempted to upgraded the first dependent module, I received this stacktrace attached when running the "grails upgrade" command.

| Environment set to development.....

    WARNING: This target will upgrade an older Grails application to 2.3.0.
    Are you sure you want to continue?

1 error (Use --stacktrace to see the full trace)

After some googling, it looked like this was related to a known issue with having \u in the code when not followed by a hex code. After removing all instances thereof, it still gave the same error. Next I changed the workspace where the code was at the time from C:\unique_workspace\Iteration21 to C:\x_unique_workspace\Iteration21 to remove the \u in the workspace address. Doing this and attempting the upgrade again resulted in this stacktrace:

| Error Error executing script Upgrade: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:

Script1.groovy: 1: unexpected char: '\' @ line 1, column 20.
def pluginDir = 'C:\x_unique_workspace\Iteration21\myApp-common'
                   ^

It appears that the upgrade script is choking on the '\' character while it updates the common plugin that the module requires, but I am having trouble discerning a way around it.

Can you put the concise summary at the top of this wall of text rather than the bottom? – tacaswell
Do you have def pluginDir = 'C:\x_unique_workspace\Iteration21\myApp-common' or the properly escaped def pluginDir = 'C:\\x_unique_workspace\\Iteration21\\myApp-common' in your file? – tim_yates

I had the same issue when trying to perform an upgrade (spring-security-core plugin). I added the following property to my BuildConfig.groovy to fix it:

grails.project.work.dir = "target/work"
grails.project.plugins.dir = "${grails.project.work.dir}/plugins"

There is an issue with the upgrade command. Instead of running grails upgrade manually change the app.grails.version=2.3.x line in the application.properties file in your Project's directory.

See the JIRA issue

It is due to the empty file of /scripts/_upgrade.groovy. It has // or commonented lines, so you could try deleting this file.
