Compile error in Grails ehcache plugin

Question

Have just added to BuildConfig.groovy:

    compile ":cache-ehcache:1.0.1"

I'm using Eclipse/Spring Tool Suite v 3.5.0.RELEASE

JAVA_HOME set to: E:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_17

I get the following compilation errors when I run grails runApp.

Compilation error: startup failed:
Compile error during compilation with javac.

Did you ever manage to get this working? I am experiencing the same issue with Grails 2.3.7 and cache-ehcache:1.0.4... — rcgeorge23
I think in the end I took out the BuildConfig dependency on ehcache and GORM ends up pulling the cache module in — Greg Pagendam-Turner

try to delete the project’s folder under the .grails directory, e.g. ‘~/.grails/2.3.8/projects/osrpms’.

and the commands

grails clean-all

grails clean

then run the project
