Execution optimizations have been disabled for task ':compileGsonViews'

Question

We recently upgraded our project from Grails 3 to 5.1.1. Actually, it was not really an upgrade but rather a migration. We ended up creating a fresh project with 5.1.1 and migrated all of our code into it. Everything is currently working with an exception of one warning:

> Task :compileGsonViews
Execution optimizations have been disabled for task ':compileGsonViews' to ensure correctness due to the following reasons:
  - Gradle detected a problem with the following location: '/Users/shurikag/PRIZ/dev/priz-api/build/gson-classes/main'. Reason: Task ':bootWarMainClassName' uses this output of task ':compileGsonViews' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed. Please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/7.3.3/userguide/validation_problems.html#implicit_dependency for more details about this problem.

And in fact, as our newrelic shows, the app is now extremely slow on gson rendering. Usually the first time an endpoint is called, it is very slow, the subsequent calls are OK.

Is there a solution for it?

Here is our build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven {
            url "https://repo.grails.org/grails/core"

UPDATE

If I update grailsGradlePluginVersion to 5.1.1 and run the app with grails run-app, I am facing another issue:

@JeffScottBrown It's 5.1.0 Tried upgrading to 5.1.1, and some other things completely exploded. — Shurik Agulyansky, Jan 21 '22 at 17:39
If you change `grailsGradlePluginVersion` in `gradle.properties` to 5.1.1 does it work? — Jeff Scott Brown, Jan 21 '22 at 18:05
"Tried upgrading to 5.1.1, and some other things completely exploded." - I can't reproduce that. — Jeff Scott Brown, Jan 21 '22 at 18:06

I managed to get the error to go away. All I needed to do it all the dependency config for the related tasks (in build.gradle):

tasks.named('bootWarMainClassName') {
    it.mustRunAfter(tasks.named('compileGsonViews'))
}

However, that sis not help the performance :(

If you are using `5.1.0` for `grailsGradlePluginVersion`, try `5.1.1`. – Jeff Scott Brown Jan 21 '22 at 15:06
@JeffScottBrown I am on 5.1.1 – Shurik Agulyansky Jan 21 '22 at 16:59
"I am on 5.1.1" - I am aware of the problem happening when using `grailsGradlePluginVersion` version 5.1.0 which is configured by default in Grails 5.1.1 apps. I thought updating `grailsGradlePluginVersion` to 5.1.1 would make the problem go away. I am not sure what is going wrong in your project if that doesn't fix it but if you can share a sample app, I would be happy to look at it. – Jeff Scott Brown Jan 21 '22 at 17:27

I had the same error, upgrading to grails 5.1.2 results in the error still logging out but no longer causes it to actually fail

It was never causing a failure, just performance issues. I managed to get the error go away (see the answer below), but the slowness is still there :) – Shurik Agulyansky Jan 28 '22 at 17:33
