Short tips on showing Grails debug log messages.

To turn on display of debug log messages in Grails 1.0.2, add this to the bottom of grails-app/conf/Config.groovy:
environments {
development {
log4j {
logger {
grails."app"="debug,stdout"
}
}
}
}
With Grails 1.0.3 the above will produce an error message like No such property: context for class: java.lang.String
For 1.0.3, use this:
environments {
development {
log4j {
logger {
grails {
app="debug"
}
}
}
}
}
In your code, simply use log.debug("my message")
Thanks to the grails-user mailing list for a clue towards this.
