Grails: HTTPBuilder stopped working suddenly
Did not upgrade anything, nothing should have changed, but I may have a silly problem I describe here:
Grails: refresh dependencies
HTTPBuilder now gives this error when I try to
def http = new HTTPBuilder( 'http://google.com/' )

UPDATE:  I had the wrong error before, this is the error I'm getting when calling that code above in bootstrap.groovy.

Removed a jar that was carelessly added to fix dependencies. It was jaxb-something.
