I'm trying to build a portlet within a grails application, and I've created a simple controller extending AbstractController which returns
new ModelAndView('myportlet') from handleRequestInternal. I also have a standard Jstl view resolver setup for /WEB-INF/jsp but no matter what I try, when I try to view the portlet within liferay I get the following stacktrace:
13:19:39,723 ERROR [DispatcherPortlet:559] Could not complete request
java.lang.ClassCastException: org.springframework.web.portlet.context.PortletRequestAttributes cannot be cast to org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.servlet.mvc.GrailsWebRequest

It seems that if I could get around the GrailsViewResolver, I should be able to get my portlet up and running as I would in a normal spring application.
I'm using liferay 6, so the grails liferay plugin isn't an option. Is there anything I can do to make sure GrailsViewResolver doesn't try to resolve my view in /WEB-INF/jsp?
