AbstractMethodError org.springframework.boot.context.config.ConfigFileApplicationListener.supportsSourceType with Spring boot 2.2.1 - spring-boot

Question

I am trying to setup a Spring cloud stream project with Spring boot starter 2.2.1, spring cloud version Hoxton and cloud stream version 3.0.0.
Below is my pom.xml
<parent>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
<version>2.2.1.RELEASE</version>
<relativePath /> <!-- lookup parent from repository -->

<properties>
<spring-cloud.version>Hoxton.RELEASE</spring-cloud.version>
<java.version>1.8</java.version>
<kotlin.version>1.3.61</kotlin.version>

When I run the application,I see
java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.springframework.boot.context.config.ConfigFileApplicationListener.supportsSourceType(Ljava/lang/Class;)Z at org.springframework.context.event.GenericApplicationListenerAdapter.supportsSourceType(GenericApplicationListenerAdapter.java:81)
...
I found out that the same error is thrown while migrating from spring boot 2.0.5 to 2.1.1 and due to dependency mismatch.
In my case, I believe that I am using the right release train versions of Spring boot and Spring cloud and this pom.xml is generated by spring initializr.
However, I tried upgrading spring-core to 5.2.1.release, as the default spring-core (version 5.0.5)threw this error => Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.util.unit.DataSize and this class is introduced in 5.2.1.
Has anyone come across this error with Spring boot 2.2.1 ? Any input is highly appreciated. Thanks.
