Grails: Native2ascii error when I add a new property to message.properties

grails, internationalization, properties, sts-springsourcetoolsuite

Solution

cd to jdk path

cp lib/tools.jar jre/lib/ext/tools.jar

It solves the issue.

Note: to get correct jdk path, check GGTS --> Windows --> Preferences --> Java --> Installed JREs --> JREs Home Path

Problem

I get a strange error when I add a new property to message.properties file in my grails application during runtime. When I restart the application via the command line, or restart STS, this error disappears. I am on version 2.0.1 and until a week ago, I was able to add new properties to message.properties file during runtime. Here is the stacktrace of the error ``` | Error 2012-06-18 16:54:58,702 [Thread-38] ERROR plugins.AbstractGrailsPluginManager - Plugin [i18n:2.0.1] could not reload changes to file [/home/project/grails-app/i18n/messages.properties]: Error starting Sun's native2ascii: Message: Error starting Sun's native2ascii: ``` Any ideas?
