Grails db-migration table already exists

Question

I'm using Grails 1.3.7 and the db-migration plug-in.

I have generated a chagelog.groovy-file containing my delta, I set theese properties:

grails.plugin.databasemigration.updateOnStart = true
grails.plugin.databasemigration.updateOnStartFileNames = ['changelog.groovy‘]

Now in my Datasource.groovy I have the the dbCreate to update.

I start my application and it tells me that the table I have in my delta is already created.

Any ideas on this?

You don't need to set any dbCreate option in your DataSource.groovy.

The migration plugin manages all necessary operations if you specified your delta correctly.

Example part of your DataSource.groovy:

production {
   dataSource {
      dbCreate = ""
      url = "yourDBUrl"
      username = "yourUser"
      password = "yourPassword"
   }
}
