Grails plugin resources not found when running using run-app

Question

I have been using Spring Security core plugin without the UI for a while. Now I have to implement the interface for that so I naturally turned to the Spring Security UI plugin for Grails.

After running my project using grails run-app, I can hit the default controllers of the plugin, however it doesn't seem to find the resources that come with the spring-security UI. I checked .grails\2.0.4\projects\Proteus\plugins\spring-security-ui-1.0-RC1 and everything seems to be there.

Packing and deploying the .WAR file through tomcat works fine. However, run-war has the same problem.

Does anyone have an idea on what might be causing this? Developing with this issue is quite painful.

Thank you!

I am using Grails 2.0.4

Application.resources

app.grails.version=2.0.4
app.name=Proteus
app.servlet.version=2.5
app.version=0.1
plugins.csv=0.3.1
plugins.famfamfam=1.0.1
plugins.mail=1.0.1
plugins.spring-security-core=2.0-RC2
plugins.spring-security-ui=1.0-RC1

Firebug console output when I hit http://localhost:8080/Proteus/user/

Turns out to be a setting in config.groovy. I had grails.resources.processing.enabled = false from a few months ago when I was having issues with the adding fonts. Hope this helps someone in the future!

environments {
development {
    grails.logging.jul.usebridge = true
    grails.resources.processing.enabled = false
}
production {
    grails.logging.jul.usebridge = false
    grails.resources.processing.enabled = false
    // TODO: grails.serverURL = "http://www.changeme.com"
}

}
