The suggested fix requires you to directly manipulate the lang cookie.

CookieLocaleResolver is not working properly. Change to SessionLocaleResolver. works as expected.
SessionLocaleResolver can be configured in spring/resources.xml or this plugin can be changed to use the SessionLocaleResolver instead of the CookieLocaleResolver

Add a URL mapping to redirect to a controller:

"/" {
	controller = "book"
  }

Soon we may make it possible to do:

"/" {
	view = "/index"
  }

Actually locale changing only works with controllers, not with views.

The former comment refers to that but does not explain.
The according issue is ~~GRAILS-3871~~.
