@vishalvai Can you provide a few more details here like a full stack trace, version details (which version of the tools, which JDK, which OS, etc.) and describe the way you installed the tooling (downloaded a ready-to-use distribution of STS4 for Eclipse or installed into an existing Eclipse).

I guess this is caused by a dependency resolution conflict or similar in the underlying plugin structure, but to clearly identify the issue the above mentioned information is super important.
