Grails : how to change site favicon?

I tried to replace favicon.ico in /web-app/images/ folder but it doesn't work : my site still has the usual Grails favicon. What do I need to do more?

Solution

  • try to change views\layout\main.gsp

    <html>  
    <head>  
        <title><g:layoutTitle default="Grails" /></title>  
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="${createLinkTo(dir:'css',file:'main.css')}" />  
        <link rel="shortcut icon" href="${createLinkTo(dir:'images',file:'favicon.ico')}" type="image/x-icon" />  
        <g:layoutHead />  
        <g:javascript library="application" />                  
    </head>  
    <body>  
        <div id="spinner" class="spinner" style="display:none;">  
            <img src="${createLinkTo(dir:'images',file:'spinner.gif')}" alt="Spinner" />  
        </div>      
        <div class="logo"><img src="${createLinkTo(dir:'images',file:'grails_logo.jpg')}" alt="Grails" /></div>     
        <g:layoutBody />        
    </body>     
</html>

    and comment

    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="${createLinkTo(dir:'images',file:'favicon.ico')}" type="image/x-icon" />
