Whilst trying to run mvn grails:exec with more complicated requests it kept erroring:

Whilst trying to install the Nimble plugin for Grails using Maven I ran in to a spot of bother!

I’ve started investigating Grails for some projects and have been making some good headway and I like to use Maven for everything as it’s amazing, and generating projects is easy.
