We are trying to migrate existing application from
- Spring Boot v1.4.6.RELEASE
- tomcat7-maven-plugin
- Runtime as Embedded tomcat 7
To the new versions
- Spring boot v2.0.0.M3
- cargo-maven2-plugin
- Embedded tomcat 8.5.5 Runtime
This is consistently giving me below error during the application startup.

When i tried to debug this piece of code I see at times its JerseyWebApplicationInitializer or Our custom Application Initializer is resulting in this error. When I searched about error it seems its arising out of version mismatch but I cant find any issue using maven dependency tree.
