Release Information
Update Notes
Recommended Tomcat and Hibernate plugin versions
If you are upgrading from previous versions of Grails 2.3.x and you use the Hibernate and/or Tomcat plugins you will need to update the versions in BuildConfig:
build ':tomcat:7.0.52.1'
runtime ':hibernate:3.6.10.10' // ':hibernate4:4.3.4.1' for Hibernate 4
UPDATE: hibernate plugin version 3.6.10.9 shipped with Grails 2.3.7 has a problem with multiple datasources (or multiple GORM providers like MongoDB). An updated version (3.6.10.10) of the hibernate plugin is now available. Please update the hibernate plugin version in BuildConfig.groovy .
hibernate4 plugin has been updated to 4.3.4.1 after the release. It fixes GRAILS-11198 (startup with default DataSource.groovy containing the new "singleSession = true" setting).
The current version for scaffolding plugin is 2.0.2 (already updated before 2.3.6 release).
Recommended resources plugin version
You should also upgrade resources plugin to 1.2.7 version because of a security vulnerability in resources plugin versions before 1.2.6. See CVE-2014-0053 for more information.
runtime ':resources:1.2.7'
Config.groovy should contain properly configured values for grails.resources.adhoc.excludes , for example
grails.resources.adhoc.excludes = ['**/WEB-INF/**','**/META-INF/**']
