Hi, while running grails application on intel chip in my mac following issue is seen.

In Use
Grails : 7.0.0-M3
Gradle : 8.13
Java : 17.0.13-amzn

This Grails version i fine on M-series Mac.

Am I missing something?

@HrishavRS Grails publishes two binaries to for macOS, an ARM version and an x86_64 version.

You can see both on https://github.com/apache/grails-forge/releases/tag/v7.0.0-M3. You will want grails-darwin-amd64-v7.0.0-M3.zip

Did SDKMan give you the incorrect version?

[jamesfredley]

This was fixed on #538 after the 7.0.0-M3 milestone. It is working in 7.0.0-SNAPSHOT and will work in the 7.0.0-M4 which will be the first milestone under Apache.

I cannot be sure on that, sdkman doesn't provide the option to choose the version for the package in the question.

However i am still facing bad CPU executable from the provided amd64 version.

I tested this on other 3 Mac with Intel Chip and all are facing the same issue,
However on M-Series Mac, This issue is not observed.

Processor in use for Intel Chip : 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7

I will look into M4 version once it's released, Thanks!
