I have following script which is aim to make a war file.

 def ant = new AntBuilder()
 ant.ant(antfile:'build.xml', dir:APP_ROOT, target:'war')

unfortunately I am getting following error when groovy try to run ant.ant(... line

Error executing script War: [Lorg/codehaus/groovy/runtime/callsite/CallSite;

 [exec] java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: [Lorg/codehaus/groovy/runtime/callsite/CallSite;
 [exec]     at java.lang.Class.getDeclaredMethods0(Native Method)
 [exec]     at java.lang.Class.privateGetDeclaredMethods(Class.java:2427)

It seems the problem occurs if the groovy dependency of your grails is different than the groovy version installed on your local. I could reproduce the same issue when I tried to call grails war for a grails version dependent to Groovy 1.5 with Groovy 1.6 already installed. (BTW, Grails-1.0-RC3 is dependent to Groovy 1.5.0 and CallSite is introduced in Groovy-1.6.) When you call grails war, grails compiles its scripts by a wrong groovy version and fills the script cache.

To resolve this kind of issues, what I did is:

  1. Removed all the files in ~/.grails/YOUR_GRAILS_VERSION/scriptCache/ folder.
  2. Remove Groovy bin from path or use the correct groovy version in your local

Whenever you called, Grails will compile the scripts with the correct groovy version. I hope that helps.
