Grails Resources Plugin Assertion Failed

We deployed an very basic Grails-Application (Grails 2.2.2) on several servers and many times we get an error in during the startup:

013-06-22 11:45:45,686 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR StackTrace  - Full Stack Trace:
org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.InvokerInvocationException: Assertion failed:

We did not do any complex things, neither modified any configs of this. It came up the first time after we changed the URL mappings to 

class UrlMappings {

static mappings = {
    "/$controller/$action?/$id?"{
        constraints {
            // apply constraints here
        }
    }

    "/"(controller:'analyse')
    "500"(view:'/error')
}
}

War creation works 100%, deployment on Tomcat 6 works 10%. Running the development mode via grails run-app works 100%.

Any suggestions/ideas is highly appreciated.

I had kind of the same issue.

The problem was with the permissions of the folders... Go to /usr/local/tomcat/work/Catalina/ and look for the read and write permissions of your user.

We had them with owner root... we put them with the correct owner and it got solved.
