java.io.IOException: Alias name [...] does not identify a key entry - eclipse

Question

I have a tomcat 8 server with Eclipse luna IDE ..the server was working fine till i tried to run a particular jsp on the server, i got the "tomcat failed to start" error and someone told me to delete a .snap file in .metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources.. after doing that tomcat isn't starting at all for any other project as well and i am getting the following errors in the console:
