Grails Unable to consume web service using Wsclient

I have used WSClient on my Grails application by adding groovyws-standalone-0.3.1.jar in lib folder of my project. Added the following code in my controller:

import groovyx.net.ws.WSClient
....
....

def wsdlUrl = "url_Of_webservice?wsdl"
def payLoad = "list_Of_Parameters"
def result = ''
def proxy = new WSClient(wsdlUrl , this.class.classLoader)
try{
     proxy.initialize()
     result = proxy.getallvendorsbyurl(payLoad)                      
}
catch (java.lang.NullPointerException e){
      println "proxy not initialize"
 }

It is working fine in localhost but when i deploy it on tomcat6 server, it starts throwing exception :

On server logs:

 ERROR errors.GrailsExceptionResolver  - groovy.lang.GroovyObjectSupport
 java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: groovy.lang.GroovyObjectSupport

On GSP page:

Error 500: Executing action [groupDetails] of controller [com.ongraph.yhd.GroupController]  caused exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: groovy/lang/GroovyObjectSupport
