How do I fix this: "ClassDefFoundError: org/codehaus/groovy/grails/commons/ConfigurationHolder"?

I was trying to run my grails project which I upgraded to 2.4.4 from 2.3.5. Now after trying to run it, I get these error:

If you are using Eclipse, go to Java build path, Order and Export, tick all the libraries and then execute the application

Based on Grail's migration doc, it looks like they have remove ConfigurationHolder from 2.4.

You need to update the hibernate plugin.

From their doc:

Static Holder Classes The following deprecated classes have been removed from Grails 2.4.x:

org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.ApplicationHolder org.codehaus.groovy.grails.commons.ConfigurationHolder org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.PluginManagerHolder org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.context.ServletContextHolder org.codehaus.groovy.grails.compiler.support.GrailsResourceLoaderHolder If you or any plugins you have installed are using these classes you will get a compilation error. The problem can be rectified by updating to new plugins and using grails.util.Holders instead.

If your application uses the jquery plugin you will need to update to version 1.11.0.2 or later as previous versions of the plugin made use of the ApplicationHolder class. If your application uses the resources plugin you will need to update to version 1.2.7 or later as previous versions of the plugin made use of the ConfigurationHolder class.
