Does not work in Grails V2.3.7?

[johnlim]

Hi,

I'm trying out the remote control plugin and have created a simple functional test as follows:

class SampleSpec extends GebSpec {

  def remote = new RemoteControl()

  def "sample specification"() {

    when:
    def id = remote {
      def field = new Field(label: "Remote Control", id: 0)
      field.save flush: true
      field.id
    }

    then:
    true

  }

However, I keep getting the following error when running my function tests using the remote control plugin groovyx.remote.RemoteControlException: Error sending command chain to 'http://localhost:8080null/grails-remote-control' at groovyx.remote.transport.http.HttpTransport.send(HttpTransport.groovy:65) at groovyx.remote.client.RemoteControl.sendCommandChain(RemoteControl.groovy:114) at groovyx.remote.client.RemoteControl.exec(RemoteControl.groovy:73) at groovyx.remote.client.RemoteControl.exec(RemoteControl.groovy:67) at groovyx.remote.client.RemoteControl.call(RemoteControl.groovy:81)

I noticed that there were some open issues that looked similar and am wondering if the issue I am facing is a known issue? Is there any work around available? Thanks.

I don't have access to my code and tools at the moment, so I can't give a detailed answer, but I had the same problem. Try setting grails.project.fork.test to false in your BuildConfig.groovy.

grails.project.fork = [
    test: false,
    run: forkRunConfig,
    war: forkRunConfig,
    console: forkRunConfig
]

Hi Ken,

Thanks! That worked for me. I assume this is a workaround and it will be fixed in subsequent releases?

Regards, John

This should be fixed in the next Grails release. The issue is on that side of things, and not with this plugin.

Thanks. Closing this issue since it not related to the plugin.
