Grails 2.1.0 Not Auto-Reloading / Auto-Recompiling

grails, java

Solution

If you name the package names on your controllers incorrectly (as in the folder structure does not agree with the package declaration), the application will still run and no errors will be reported, but auto-reloading will not work.

Problem

Seems that Grails does automatically recompile my GSP pages, but not my controllers. It used to work with the previous version of Grails. Any idea what I can look for? Using Grails 2.1.0 on OSX Snow Leopard. Note: This is similar to this issue
