Grails or Hibernate not creating missing table

Question

I'm new to Grails so forgive my ignorance--if other info is helpful I'll do my best to get it posted.

I've created a single domain model class ToolKitComponent that is defined as:

class ToolKitComponent {
    String componentName
    String componentVersion
    int componentDownloads
    Date compnentLastUpdate

    static constraints = {

    }
}

I have a controller that I just want to test the ORM by persisting an example, so here's the contents of the controller:

def index() { 
        ToolKitComponent i = new ToolKitComponent()
        i.setComponentName("TestComponent")
        i.setComponentVersion("v1.10")
        i.setComponentDownloads(1)
        i.setCompnentLastUpdate(new Date())
        i.save()
}

I've installed the MySql database plugin and updated my DataSource.groovy to:

dataSource {
    pooled = true
    driverClassName = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
    dialect = "org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect"
    loggingSql = true
}

// other settings

environments {
    development {
        dataSource {
            String dbCreate = "create"
            String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/testDataBase"
            String username = "myUser"
            String password = "myPass"
        }
    }
}

I've created the database testDataBase and granted all to the username.

When I run the application, I get:

Hibernate: insert into tool_kit_component (version, compnent_last_update, component_downloads, component_name, component_version) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

I'm using Grails 2.0.4.

Any help is appreciated!

Take away the String in your datasource definition

environments {
    development {
        dataSource {
            dbCreate = "create"
            url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/testDataBase"
            username = "myUser"
            password = "myPass"

        }
    }
}
