Execution failed for task ':compileGroovy'. org.springframework.security.authentication.encoding.PasswordEncoder

I have an issue with starting my project after the upgrade of IDEA. Current error is the following:

CONFIGURE SUCCESSFUL in 2s
|Running application...
> Task :compileJava NO-SOURCE
startup failed:

If I try to clean and run-app I get the following: | Running application... <-------------> 0% WAITING

Tried everything I know, project settings, clean cache, invalidate cache and restart... nothing is helping.

I have found a solution: grails.plugin.springsecurity.authentication.encoding.BCryptPasswordEncoder - using deprecated classes

class CryptoEncoderWrapper implements org.springframework.security.authentication.encoding.PasswordEncoder

you need to change build.gradle to:

compile 'org.grails.plugins:spring-security-core:4.0.0'

BCrypt now has this import

import org.springframework.security.crypto.bcrypt.BCryptPasswordEncoder

Now, this issue is resolved but leads to other issues.
