Hey Gerhard and Simone!

Thanks for asking a question to the group! However, your question is a bit broad in scope to be answered by someone on this list.

Can you be more specific about what is giving you trouble? Deploying a grails application to tomcat isn't all that different from deploying any Java Web application, you simply need to make a war file via the

$grails war

command, then drop your war file into a running tomcat instance's wepapps folder.

Generally speaking, its a good idea to allocate more PermGen memory space for your tomcat servlet, as grails tends to use up more of that part of heap than a standard java app, but otherwise that should get you started.

Did you have any more specific questions someone can help you with?

I am not sure this will help you or not but we always have issue while deploying the build on tomcat,

 but it works 100% if we execute commands in order : grails clean && grails war && grails war

so creating the war twice always works for us and maximum time does not work if we build the war only once.. 

give it a try ..

   Based my experience and the error posted there is something wrong with the database connection settings...
