Play Scala Framework Error - scala

Question

I am trying to run the project activator-hello-play-2_3-scala-master (available at typesafe's git repo) but I am getting this error:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:com.typesafe.sbt.web.Import$WebKeys$.pipelineStages()Lsbt/SettingKey
Even if I run templates such as hello-play-scala Framework 2.3 from activator ui, I get the same error.
I am using activator 1.3.4-minimal. Could you please suggest what might be going wrong?
Here is my complete stack trace:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.typesafe.sbt.web.Import$WebKeys$.pipelineStages()Lsbt/SettingKey;
