Error creating bean with name - Grails 2.3.8

Question

Grails 2.3.8 error searchable plugin 6.9 - Error creating bean with name grails.plugin.searchable.SearchableController

Error 2016-07-26 09:53:18,826 [localhost-startStop-1] ERROR context.GrailsContextLoader - Error initializing the application: Error creating bean with name 'grails.plugin.searchable.SearchableController': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'searchableService': Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'compass': FactoryBean threw exception on object creation; nested exception is org.compass.core.mapping.MappingException: No converter defined for type [org.bson.types.ObjectId]

The error occurs at runtime and I can't fixed it

Answer 1

My guess is that you have a searchable property of type org.bson.types.ObjectId. This is not a type that the searchable plugin natively knows how to index, so you have to define a converter for it.
