See I would argue that the very act of grappling would be sufficient to interrupt the spell casting, and thus the player would not be able to cast the spell.

I think caster is able to choose whether they want to teleport with the one grapping him/her or without. Would be silly otherwise.

From the player's handbook: "You can bring along objects and willing creatures totaling up to 50 pounds per caster level."

If one can teleport without error, what happens should you choose to teleport without error during a grapple. That is where someone is holding on to you. Presumably, you teleport but they don't.

More opinion on this would be welcome.

The caster of a spell chooses the targets of the spell, and in the case of teleport without error all of the potential targets must be willing. Therefore;

1) If you do not choose to target the grappler then he does not go with you.
2) If the grappler does not want to be teleported then he cannot be targeted by the spell at all.

Grappling can disrupt spellcasting or the use of a spell-like ability if you do not succeed a Concentration check. In the case of a spell, the grappler can also attempt to prevent you from speaking if they succeed. In the case of a spell-like ability, Silent Spell, or a similar effect the lack of speech would be irrelevant. Lastly, in the rare event that your teleport without error is a supernatural or extraordinary ability then neither speech nor concentration would be required for you to successfully use it.

I would imagine in a situation like this that maybe Blink would be a better choice, but that's just me. I dont even know if that spell still exists in the current edition.

Actually, it looks like they changed it quite a lot, though perhaps the end result remains the same.

Here is the first two paragraphs of the description for blink from 2E:
"By means of this spell, the wizard causes his material form to "blink" directly from one point to another at a random time and in a random direction. This means that melee attacks against the wizard automatically miss if initiative indicates they fall after he has blinked.
Each round the spell is in effect, the wizard rolls 2d8 to determine the timing of the blink the result of the dice roll is used as the wizard's initiative for that round. The wizard disappears and instantaneously reappears 10' distant from his previous position. (Direction is determined by roll of 1d8.) The caster cannot blink into a solid object; if such is indicated, reroll the direction. Movable objects of size and mass comparable to the caster are shoved aside when the caster blinks in. If blinking is impossible except into a fixed, solid object, the caster is then trapped on the Ethereal plane."

Well I know for a fact it's in 2E. I can't comment whether it's in 3E or later. In a nutshell it allows the caster to randomly teleport very short distances every round for the lenght of the spell. It should be a 3rd or 4th level spell.

Once I get home I can see if I can give you a better description of the spell.

Teleport without error does need a concentration check to be cast while grappled. It meets all other requirements for a spell cast while grappling since it is Vocal only components.
