soapUI errors on groovy step

I have tried all kinds of versions of soapUI pro now and it seems like soapui has a very nasty bug. I'm surprised no one has seen this

I am seeing this on
soapUI Pro 4.5.1, copyright (C) 2007-2012 smartbear.com http://www.soapui.org | http://smartbear.com Build [internal], Build Date 2012/06/27 14:05

I have a simple testcase which runs fine. As soon as a add a groovy teststep with a simple log.info("hello"), the testcase execution will fail. However running the groovy step by itself works fine.

TestCase failed [java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.apache.log4j.Logger:java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.apache.log4j.Logger], time taken = 3081

    I think it is because you are doing something wrong. I can reproduce this error when in testCase I have this lane:

    context.setProperty("log","a")


    and then in groovy script you want to log hello.

    But you cant do this !!!

    because when you look source:

    Logger log = ( Logger )context.getProperty( "log" );

    you are rewriting logger
