Grails

The simplest application created from scratch (with one domain class and one controller) throws a 404 error when clicking on the controller link of the main page.

  • Type: Bug Bug
  • Status: Closed Closed
  • Priority: Minor Minor
  • Resolution: Fixed
  • Affects Version/s: 1.3 RC2
  • Fix Version/s: 1.3.1
  • Component/s: Commons
  • Labels:
    None
  • Environment:
    Grails 1.3-RC2, Windows Vista, Chrome Browse

Description

Steps to reproduce are easy:
1. > grails create-app com.my-project
2. > cd com.my-project
3. > grails create-domain-class com.A
4. > grails create-controller com.A
5. Edit com.AController and add the line : "def scaffold = A"
6. > grails run-app
7. Open browser, go to main page and click on the AController link
8. BOUM => HTTP Status 404 with description "The requested resource (/my-project/A/list) is not available."

Actually, if you try the url /my-project/a/list (with a in lower-case) then it works.
Note that if you go to : /my-project/a/create and create an A instance, the redirect page will also return an 404 error.

In step 5, do not forget to remove "def index = {}" also

Relates to the use of single letter domain class names, so reducing to minor

Actually, you will have the same issue if you are using a class with name 'ABC' (upper-case)

Right yes, but since you don't have the problem when using camel cases domains the issue is regarded as minor

OK. BTW, do you know how to configure my URL mapping in order to accept urls like /my-project/A/list (case insensitive URL). Therefore it will be a temp workaround for this bug.

Fabien,

com.A should be handled by something like /my-project/a/list.
com.ABC should be handled by something like /my-project/ABC/list.

Section 8.8 of the JavaBeans API specification (version 1.01) says the following about capitalization of inferred names...

"FooBah" becomes "fooBah"
"Z" becomes "z"
"URL" becomes "URL"

I am not seeing an issue with all upper case names like 'ABC'. Are you? If yes, can you provide specifics?

If I have a domain class called com.ABC then the scaffolded controller appears to work as it should.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Jeff,

Yes you are right, ABC is working. Only A class (with one letter) does not work. This is indeed a minor bug.

Concerning mapping, what is needed is to have the url /my-project/A/list to be redirected to /my-project/a/list. If I can do that, then this will stand for a workaround for this bug since the scaffolding system is trying to reach urls like /my-project/A/list or /my-project/A/show/1.
