Grails + Netbeans + Apache Tomcat

Question

So I have my grails server running with netbeans and i'm codding new features / testing in my browser at same time. For some reason, sometimes when i change code im domain classes and then save and refresh my page, the server seems to go down but in reality, it is still running. I get this error:

HTTP Status 404 -

type Status report

message

description The requested resource () is not available.
Apache Tomcat/6.0-snapshot

Any idea how to solve that? Because its really anoying, i make changes and then when i want to visualize it the server goes down. Any help would be apreciated.

Answer 1

If you change anything in a domain class and save it your app will get re-deployed and may take a minute (404 in the meantime). You can change views and controllers without the app being re-deployed and you should see the changes as soon as you save and refresh.

Does this help?
