java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.graalvm.polyglot.Context with asset-pipeline:5.0.4

Grails Issue: grails/grails-core#13913

Workaround:

This will end up being a somewhat frequent occurrence for those upgrading to Grails 7, that had been loading asset-pipeline-gradle in buildSrc or buildscript{} vs the new way in plugins{} by id/version only.

remove com.bertramlabs.plugins:asset-pipeline-gradle from buildSrc/build.gradle or buildscript{} in build.gradle:

implementation "com.bertramlabs.plugins:asset-pipeline-gradle:5.0.4"
classpath "com.bertramlabs.plugins:asset-pipeline-gradle:5.0.4"

also remove it from settings.gradle, if present

then define in build.gradle only with id and version:

plugins {
     id "com.bertramlabs.asset-pipeline" version "5.0.4"
}

This is also occurring in projects that do not include asset-pipeline-gradle in buildSrc/build.gradle or buildscript{} and just the following in build.gradle:

runtimeOnly "com.bertramlabs.plugins:asset-pipeline-grails"

the error:

It is this line that errors during runtime:

and loading the plugin with implementation or classpath seems to be adding

asset-pipeline/asset-pipeline-core/src/main/groovy/asset/pipeline/processors/BabelJsProcessor.groovy

Line 30 in 5a7b347

import org.graalvm.polyglot.Context

to the list of processors. BabelJsProcessor.groovy is the only class using org.graalvm.polyglot.Context

https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Abertramdev%2Fasset-pipeline+%22processors+%3D%22&type=code - code setting the list of processors and one of these that is adding BabelJsProcessor is likely the root cause

running ./gradlew build on https://github.com/grails/gorm-mongodb/tree/more-grails-7-updates is a good current example. The tests do pass, but the exceptions are logged.
