Spring Boot ObjectMapper throws NullPointerException

I am currently working on an application that fails to run after upgrading to a newer snapshot version of a custom 3rd party dependency. Upon using this updated dependency I get the following error
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to load ApplicationContext
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException:
Error creating bean with name 'listener': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through field 'mapper'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException:
Error creating bean with name 'objectMapper' defined in class path resource [com/****/****/****/WebMvcConfig.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed;
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException:
Failed to instantiate [com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper]: Factory method 'objectMapper' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
The 'mapper' is what I am using locally, 'objectMapper' refers to a remote dependency. I realize this is may be challenging without code, but what could be causing this error? If I remove my objectmapper instance, the error only shifts to another section of the program, but the stack trace always leads to this:
Error creating bean with name 'objectMapper' defined in class path resource [com/****/****/****/WebMvcConfig.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed;
nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException:
Failed to instantiate [com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper]: Factory method 'objectMapper' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException
Ive tried different versions of com.fasterxml.jackson.core but that does not seem to help. Any suggestions at all would be appreciated.
Edit:
Additional Stack Trace:

the above code is from my project which is in production ,so there are no chance of java errors (#AUTOWIRED ) OR annotation based errors , my question is , is there any other possibility of getting this type of error .

springboot app not starting - error (Stopped o.s.b.c.e.j.JettyEmbeddedWebAppContext)

I'm having problem while starting restful spring boot app. On seeing the error stacktrace, I could see some exceptions related to jetty.
I could see the below log.
Started o.s.b.c.e.j.JettyEmbeddedWebAppContext#26586b74{/,file:/C:/Windows/Temp/jetty-docbase.8144885224534920922.8080/,AVAILABLE}
I did check C:/windows/Temp and I couldn't find jetty-docbase.8144885224534920922.8080
It would be great if someone can help me in fixing this issue. How I can create that file so that jetty will identify it?
Below is the complete stack trace.

Many Thanks in advance...

Your actual exception is:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not resolve placeholder 'build.version' in string value "${build.version}"
This means, that Spring application fails create context and to start, because can't create some of the beans because it can not resolve some required autowired variable, in you case it's a build.version. You can try to add this variable as command line argument or add it as a property into the application.properies file. Or you may locate the bean (it's name is buildInformationProperties, where this value should be autowird and try to figure out, why you dont't have it by default.

Any pointer to debug this issue?

Context was loading manually(Java Code) from code for fetching a bean, removing which resolved the issue.
However my problem is solved but still not sure how it was working with last version of spring boot.
