The question and answers seems to be out-of-date. I have encountered the same problem but it has been fixed by replying the discussion here. The easiest way to resolve the issue is to run the following command:

chmod +x .sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh

which helped me out.

I ran the below commands: 1. To set path to contain jdk 1.8.0_144 bin folder & Grails bin folder. 2. Set JAVA_HOME to jdk1.8.0_144 3. set GRAILS_HOME to Grails-2.4.3 folder.

And it worked !!!

Solution:

Make sure you have environment variable set correctly.

  1. Go to grails/bin folder $cd /Applications/grails/grails-2.3.11/bin
  2. Then run grails from command line $./grails

When you run this command, necessary files for your grails will be downloaded.

  1. Close your terminal
  2. Now check your grails version from terminal $grails -version

There won't be any errors.

You must update your jdk version. I was using jdk1.8.0_11 and it resolved with jdk1.8.0_45.

I'm using Grails installed with GVM, and I've also run into this issue after updating environment variables in the profile and sourcing in the new changes. I was able to fix the problem simply by closing and reopening the terminal.

You could just use gvm to install your version then use it to manage your versions.

I found the solution. If you go to the grails/bin folder and run grails from the command line you can close the console afterwards and when you open the console again the problem will be fixed.

You are probably still running grails 2.3.10.

You have to update GRAILS_HOME and you also have to update your path to use the new grails version, i.e. your path must include $GRAILS_HOME/bin.
