Description

.groovy extension mapped in web.xml and .groovy script located in WEB-INF/groovy

First call to test.groovy works
http://localhost:8080/test/test.groovy

INFO: Groovy servlet initialized on groovy.util.GroovyScriptEngine@6f03de90.
Oct 8, 2012 1:52:39 PM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log

All subsequent calls return 404
http://localhost:8080/test/test.groovy

INFO: Server startup in 773 ms
GroovyServlet Error: script: '/test.groovy': Script not found, sending 404.

Note the .groovy mapping works corrected in Groovy 1.8.4 through 2.0.1 but appears to have broken as 2.0.2 through 2.0.5.

Attached sample WAR removed the groovy jar which was originally packed as "WEB-INF/lib/groovy-all-2.0.5.jar"
