Description

An exception occurs during startup of Grails application in Tomcat server.

It looks like doArtefactConfiguration() method of DefaultGrailsPluginManager is called during WebApplicationContext creation (in afterPropertiesSet method of GrailsPluginManagerFactoryBean). But at this stage PluginManager is not inited, and plugins are not loaded, so exeption is produced. Maybe doArtefactConfiguration method should be called in GrailsRuntimeConfigurator after initing plugin manager?

Quote from Graeme's answer in maillist:
"the call to doArtefatConfiguration() definitely needs to happy after PluginManager is initialised, obviously this
differs in WAR mode and in run-app mode so we need to find out what will work for both"

Stacktrace:

SEVERE: Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.context.GrailsContextLoaderListener
