after updating my grails app’s security plugins, i get the following error when deploying to tomcat:

2012-01-17 09:13:04,970 [pool-2-thread-1] ERROR context.ContextLoader – Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.access.BootstrapException: Error executing bootstraps; nested exception is org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerInvocationException: groovy.lang.MissingMethodException: No signature of method: static org.example.SecRole.findByAuthority() is applicable for argument types: (java.lang.String) values: [ROLE_USER]

the app works fine when being tested via run-app.

the SecRole class has been automatically generated by the spring security plugin.

i had previously deployed the app on the same server without a problem when using an older version of the spring security plugin.

have been knocking my head against this for hours. ideas much appreciated.

    As per Peter’s comment above, upgrading to Grails 2.0 solved the problem I described above. However, I had subsequently run into a host of upgrade issues with the app.
