Deploy Grails app to AppFog using Eclipse CloudFoundry plugin

Question

I'm trying to deploy my Grails application to AppFog using CloudFoundry plugin (ver. 1.1) in Spring Source Suites (STS 2.9.2). I'm using https://api.appfog.com as server address and MYAPPNAME.aws.af.cm for application address when deploying app. Application is pushed and started, services are bounded but, after that, I recive error saying that: Communication with server failed: I/O error: Server returned HTTP response code: 405 for URL: https://api.appfog.com/apps/MYAPPNAME/application

Also, when I try to create Caldecott tunnel toward database I recive response "The URIs: caldecott-85393a.appfog.com have already been taken or reserved. (404 Not Found)" which I also saw when (by mistake) treid to deploy application to MYAPPNAME.api.appfog.com (default AF name instead of particular infrastructure adress).

I suppose that CloudFoundry plugin uses default server address to reach application and also trying to create Caldecott tunnel on default server address (caldecott-85393a.appfog.com instead of caldecott-85393a.aws.af.cm)

Does anybody have idea how to circumvent this situation?

Answer 1

this doesn't sound like an issue with the plugin itself but the response coming back from AppFog's cloud. I would take this up as an issue with them and clarify you can use that plugin with their cloud.

Answer 2

AppFog had issues recently with their Java deployments that was specifically affecting Grails apps. This has been resolved and should be working seamlessly as expected now.
