6 Common Issues

Enable logging

If you have troubles with plugin, please enabled logging, so you can see what's happening:

log4j = {
    debug 'com.burig'
}

Authentication don't work with localhost domain

Make sure that you're using a real domain name for your application. Not a localhost, and avoid .local domains as well.

You can make a fake domain like dev.myapp.com, by putting into /etc/hosts the following line:

127.0.0.1 dev.myapp.com

See more details about hosts file, and location of the file for different operation systems see: hosts (file)

After that, you should configure your Grails app to use this domain, by adding following line into Config.groovy. Of course, you need to use this domain only for development, so put this configuration into development environment config:

environments {
    development {
        grails.serverURL = "http://dev.myapp.com:${System.getProperty('server.port', '8080')}/${appName}"
    }
}
