Install manually grails

Question

I want to know how to install manual a grails plugin (2.0.3 version) in STS.

I found grails plugin here http://grails.org/download

I tried to install it by cliking on Help -> Install New Software -> Clicking ‘Add’ then I had this error "Could not find jar:....grails-2.0.3.zip!"

Thanks

I cannot find any Eclipse plugin at http://grails.org/download, only Grails itself. Are sure that you've downloaded an Grails Plugins for Eclipse from here? — Igor Artamonov, Dec 23 '13 at 08:41
I want to only install Grails plugin. I've installed STS previously — Jils, Dec 23 '13 at 08:52
you mean '*a grails plugin for eclipse*' or what? maybe you want to get *Grails*, not *Grails plugin*? PS I though STS is already contains a plugin for grails development... — Igor Artamonov, Dec 23 '13 at 08:54
I'm using Spring source, I cannot install grails extention from the dashboard. That's why I'm looking for alternatif solution to install a specific grails plugin version. — Jils, Dec 23 '13 at 08:57
then you should download it from here - http://grails.org/products/ggts — Igor Artamonov, Dec 23 '13 at 09:07
I'll re start my environment set up. I see that there is not information about grails version. Can I change grails version after installing the 'package'? — Jils, Dec 23 '13 at 09:16

In STS go to Window > preferences> groovy > grails and select a grails directory for a particular version.

Also you can download the latest release and compiler from Dashboard > Extensions.

I selected my grails versions but ggts doesn't recognize my project as grails project. The convert processus and the compilation doesn't work. The Console I have: | Loading Grails 2.0.3 | Configuring classpath And anythink else – Jils Dec 23 '13 at 11:23
The grails version and project version must be same And in your case your project is not a grails project .Its not recommended but you can try to create a new project and manually put src into new project if conversions to grails not working. – Sachin Verma Dec 24 '13 at 05:29
