I find that it doesn't work to use compiled groovy classes with Java unless you add some classes to the classpath. Since I don't know what classes these are, I just added all of them, resulting in the following groovy.profile:
export GROOVY_HOME=/opt/groovy
export PATH=$PATH:$GROOVY_HOME/bin
for name in $GROOVY_HOME/lib/*.jar ; do
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$name
done
export CLASSPATH
(it's PROBABLY only groovy-version.jar and asm-version.jar that need to be on the classpath, but I don't know).
