Could not find artifact commons-codec:commons-codec:zip:1.10 in grailsCentral (https://repo.grails.org/grails/plugins)

I am newbie to grails/groovy. In my grails app, i added a new dependency to BuildConfig.groovy as below

compile 'commons-codec:commons-codec:1.10'

When I try to start my app, i get the below error

| Error Resolve error obtaining dependencies: Could not find artifact commons-codec:commons-codec:zip:1.10 in grailsCentral (https://repo.grails.org/grails/plugins)

Please help.

Solution

  • Based on the error it would appear you have added this into the plugins section of your BuildConfig.groovy when you should add it into the dependencies section. Doing so will resolve this issue.
