Null pointer exception for grailsApplication while using added connections

[pankaz]

Hi,

I'm using Grails 2.4.0. When I try using additional connections that are configured via the connections closures, I get a NPE at src\groovy\grails\plugin\redis\RedmineService.groovy.

I was able to fix it by using Holders.grailsApplication instead of grailsApplication. Can you kindly integrate this fix into the code base?

Thanks

released at 1.6.1. If that doesn't fix it, please provide a test case/patch that I can use to exercise the issue.
