How do i enable webapp to be distributable in grails 3+ since there is no web.xml?
step 1: go to src\main\webapp\WEB-INF location. (if not, create the path)
step 2: create a folder WEB-INF
step 3: create a file web.xml and paste the following code
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app version="2.5"
metadata-complete="true"
xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
<distributable/>
</web-app>
step 4: generate war and deploy the war file on tomcat server.
Hope it will work
