Problem Using The Plugin With Grails 6.2.2

[jeffscottbrown]

I think I have followed the README instructions at https://github.com/codeconsole/grails-plugin-sitemesh3/blob/84a0e32622cddef7e98ddc6aaeae557bf3a4af71/README.md.

I created a new Grails 6.2.2 app, added https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/ as an artifact repository and added org.sitemesh:grails-plugin-sitemesh3:7.0.0-SNAPSHOT as an "implementation" dependency.

Your app is now using SiteMesh 3 and is no longer using SiteMesh 2. NO FURTHER CHANGES NEEDED.

I can't get the app to build with either Java 11 or Java 17.

Are there particular versions of Java that are required in order for this to work?

Thank you!

I tested as well on Windows and on Debian (via WSL) and was unable to build as well. It appears that Gradle is unable to decide on a Groovy version.

[jeffscottbrown]

Just FYI... I tried with Grails 6.2.3 at https://github.com/jeffscottbrown/sitemeshpluginissue6 and I still am unable to build.

[jeffscottbrown]

Is the recommended approach to exclude some transitive dependencies?

[jeffscottbrown]

Is there a sample app available which demonstrates a way to use the plugin in Grails 6?

Thank you!

I was getting similar error

Module 'org.apache.groovy:groovy' has been rejected:
           Cannot select module with conflict on capability 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy:4.0.25' also provided by [org.codehaus.groovy:groovy:3.0.23(runtime)]

But I solved by excluding groovy from sitemesh dpendency
build.gradle:

implementation("org.sitemesh:grails-plugin-sitemesh3:7.0.0-M1")
    implementation("org.grails:grails-web-sitemesh:6.2.4"){
        exclude group: "org.codehaus.groovy"
    }
