2.3-rc2 still fails to create grails war on OpenShift

Old Forum
1

Steps to repro - on OpenShift (a DIY cartridge will suffice, ssh into it to download grails and gradle)

  1. install JDK8 2. Install grails 3.0.0.M1 3. Install gradle 2.3-rc-2
$ grails create-app hello
$ cd hello
$ echo "org.gradle.daemon=false" >> gradle.properties
$ echo "org.gradle.parallel=false" >> gradle.properties
$ gradle war

Stack crawl:

https://gist.github.com/svsa/990230c2ea00c1d33b9d

It looks like its trying to talk to the daemon, but I thought the directives I’m appending to gradle.properties should stop the daemon from being used, so quite confused.

Hopefully this is helpful!

Thanks

Looks like this is still an open issue GRADLE-3180. Are you getting the error simply when building the war, even without running tests?

Hi Mark,

Yes its failing in the compileGroovy section - doesn’t appear to have reached the tests portion yet. Sometimes hard to tell with the text overwriting itself as it goes along!

Thanks

Missed this off the stack trace, sorry:

:compileGroovy FAILED

Do you have the same problem when using the ‘–no-daemon’ command line argument?

5

Hadn’t tried! Slightly embarrassed, wasn’t aware of that argument.

Sadly, still fails. Should I do an info or debug trace and upload that somewhere?

Thanks

From the --info, it is launching the daemon for the groovy compilation …

Can you post more of your build script? I can only assume some kind of compile configuration is triggering Gradle to launch an isolated daemon to compile your source.

8

Sure, its the standard build.gradle as provided by grails 3.0.0.M1

buildscript {
    ext {
      grailsVersion = project.grailsVersion
    }
      repositories {
        mavenLocal()

    }

    }

It looks like the issue I linked to above will have to be addressed for this to work. A community member contributed a similar fix for builds on Openshift. If this is a priority for you would you consider contributing a fix for this problem?

10

Hi Mark,

I wish I would even know where to begin looking! Let alone fixing, sigh.

I will investigate if given the opportunity this weekend, but don’t hold your breath!!

Cheers

11

George,

I believe I have a fix ready for this, I’m working on setting up an Openshift environment to confirm. Hoping to get this in 2.4.

12

Ah, look forward to the fix - let me know if i can help any further!

13

This fix is in the latest nightly build: http://gradle.org/nightly. It would be great if you could try it out and see if it works for you.

Hi Daz,

Upgraded wrapper to 2.4-20150209230027+0000, but ./gradlew clean (or ./gradlew war) both produce this:

Can you try running with ‘–stacktrace’. Perhaps it’ll give us some more information on why it can’t find that dependency.

Hi Mark,

132 lines - would these be better in a gist?

Thanks!

i made a gist with the build.gradle, error log and gradle.properties:

https://gist.github.com/svsa/3795cb290b97ef1a0991

18

Unfortunately this looks to be due to a recent change to one of our incubating dependency management APIs. The Spring Boot Gradle plugin will likely have to be modified to support Gradle 2.4.

19

thats a shame!
