Grails get retrieve GrailsParameterMap params from service class or util class

Have to import:
import org.springframework.web.context.request.RequestContextHolder

and use following:
def params = RequestContextHolder.getRequestAttributes().params

Reload refresh current url or redirect to another url using php script

Cannot change column used in a foreign key constraint

Disabling foreign key check using following SQL:
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;

Enabling foreign key check:
SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;

If you want it globally then:
SET GLOBAL FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;
SET GLOBAL FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;
