I couldn't find a proper answer to this problem. I have my grail application setup with mongodb. I can see the database has been created.
I have a domain class defined as follow:
class Survey {
int numPages
Map<String, Page> pages = new HashMap<String, Page>();
static mapWith = "mongo"
static constraints = {
}
}
The Survey class is built with a number of pages (by reading a json data). All the data are populated as expected. The problem is when the survey is saved to database:
survey.save(flush:true)
I get an exception that, as far as I understand, is related to the fact that GROM does not like the HashMap field pages ... The full stack trace:

Any idea how this fix this problem ? If it is related to my Survey class definition, I do need an hashmap because the keys play an important role in the design. Thanks!
