Hi James,
I was running the script locally and I had set GRAILS_REPO_URL.
I should have read the whole document before I started because I hadn't
got to the Docker container :)
Now I've tried it and seemed to go well except for the mention of
verification failed shown below.
Is that typical?

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Gradle build daemon disappeared unexpectedly (it may have been killed or
may have crashed)
* Try:

✅ Reproducible Build Verified
Be sure to do the following:
☑️ Set the override repo: 'export
GRAILS_REPO_URL=https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/staging'
☑️ Run the wrapper ShellApp: cd
/home/groovy/grails-verify/apache-grails-wrapper-7.0.0-M5-incubating-bin/ShellApp
&& ./gradlew bootRun --init-script ~/grails-verify/custom-repos.gradle
☑️ Run the wrapper ForgeApp: cd
/home/groovy/grails-verify/apache-grails-wrapper-7.0.0-M5-incubating-bin/ForgeApp
&& ./gradlew bootRun --init-script ~/grails-verify/custom-repos.gradle
☑️ Run the cli ShellApp: cd
/home/groovy/grails-verify/apache-grails-7.0.0-M5-incubating-bin/bin/ShellApp
&& ./gradlew bootRun --init-script ~/grails-verify/custom-repos.gradle
☑️ Run the cli ForgeApp: cd
/home/groovy/grails-verify/apache-grails-7.0.0-M5-incubating-bin/bin/ForgeApp
&& ./gradlew bootRun --init-script ~/grails-verify/custom-repos.gradle
☑️ Add the local repos to the application and then run the shell cli
from one of the applications and ensure all commands show as expected -
pay attention to the scaffolding ones since they are dynamically loaded
✅✅✅ Verification finished, see above instructions for remaining manual
testing.
groovy@6b743c022c7a:~/grails-verify$

I'll continue working through the remaining steps so I have it for next
time.
BTW, congratulations All on the M5 milestone!
Best regards,
Carl

Hi Carl,
First, thank you for taking a look at the release!
Are you running the very script locally on your machine or in the docker
container command we provide in the RELEASE.md? Also, are you running those
commands manually or is the verify script? If you're running them manually,
you need to point at the staging repo so the wrapper downloads the file:
export GRAILS_REPO_URL=https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/staging
Concerning this specific issue, we did discover that the wrapper can fail in
certain circumstances, specifically around these temporary
states.https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/14896 is the PR that fixes it for
the next release - I didn't feel it was important enough to cancel the release
given the scope of changes over the past month (this is a milestone so we expect
issues like this to be found) & because the issue only affects these
transitives states / snapshots.

Hi All,
I was trying to go through the verification using the verify.sh script
during the vote.
I think I'm missing some setup or something.
I was running the verify script from my up-to-date clone of grails-core.
/./etc/bin/verify.sh v7.0.0-M5 ~/temp/verify/
and it seems to be failing during the verify-wrapper-distribution.sh
section:
/./grailsw -t shell create-app ShellApp/
Checking wrapper shell command ...

I do currently have M4 installed so I don't know if that has anything to
do with it or not.
I didn't have a lot of time during the M5 vote to get into it but
hopefully I can be ready for future ones.
Best regards,
Carl
