Errors when connecting Grails to Nexmo plugin

Question

I'm getting some errors when connecting Grails to Nexmo plugin. Why is it getting errors like below? Can anyone please solve the issues?

'BuildConfig.groovy' below:

grails.project.class.dir = "target/classes"
grails.project.test.class.dir = "target/test-classes"
grails.project.test.reports.dir = "target/test-reports"

grails.project.fork = [
// configure settings for compilation JVM, note that if you alter the Groovy version forked compilation is required
//  compile: [maxMemory: 256, minMemory: 64, debug: false, maxPerm: 256, daemon:true],

// configure settings for the test-app JVM, uses the daemon by default
test   : [maxMemory: 768, minMemory: 64, debug: false, maxPerm: 256, daemon: true],
// configure settings for the run-app JVM
run    : [maxMemory: 768, minMemory: 64, debug: false, maxPerm: 256, forkReserve: false],
// configure settings for the run-war JVM
war    : [maxMemory: 768, minMemory: 64, debug: false, maxPerm: 256, forkReserve: false],
// configure settings for the Console UI JVM
console: [maxMemory: 768, minMemory: 64, debug: false, maxPerm: 256]
]

grails.project.dependency.resolver = "maven" // or ivy
grails.project.dependency.resolution = {
// inherit Grails' default dependencies
inherits("global") {
// uncomment to disable ehcache
// excludes 'ehcache'
}
log "warn" // log level of Ivy resolver, either 'error', 'warn', 'info', 'debug' or 'verbose'
repositories {
grailsCentral()
mavenLocal()
mavenCentral()
// uncomment the below to enable remote dependency resolution
// from public Maven repositories
//mavenRepo "http://repository.codehaus.org"
//mavenRepo "http://download.java.net/maven/2/"
//mavenRepo "http://repository.jboss.com/maven2/"
}
dependencies {
// specify dependencies here under either 'build', 'compile', 'runtime', 'test' or 'provided' scopes eg.
// runtime 'mysql:mysql-connector-java:5.1.27'
}

plugins {
  build ':tomcat:7.0.52.1'
  runtime ':hibernate:3.6.10.10' // ':hibernate4:4.3.4.1' for Hibernate 4
  compile ":rest:0.8"

}
}

'SmsController.groovy' below:

package nexmo

class SmsControllerController {

// Inject the service
def nexmoService

def index() {
    def smsResult
    def callResult

    try {
        // Send the message "What's up?" to 1-500-123-4567
        smsResult = nexmoService.sendSms("61451062006", "What's up?")

        System.out.println("Try block message");

    }

        catch (Exception e) {
            // Handle error if failure
            System.out.println("Error: Don't divide a number by zero");
        }
    }
}

Errors below:

Answer 1

The error text indicates that your webapp/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml was deleted. To restore it create a new empty app with the same version of Grails and copy the file from there. Also copy sitemesh.xml if it's also missing, and the .tld files from web-app/WEB-INF/tld.
