Steps I took:
Now, when I run the play app I get:
Plugin [play.CorePlugin] cannot been instantiated. java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: play.CorePlugin.(play.Application)
What am I missing?
UPDATE: Corrected the filename in my original post from plugin.conf to play.plugins and adding the stack trace:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: play.CorePlugin.<init>(play.Application)
java.lang.Class.getConstructor0(Unknown Source)
java.lang.Class.getConstructor(Unknown Source)
play.api.WithDefaultPlugins$$anonfun$plugins$1$$anonfun$apply$9.apply(Application.scala:137)

...
Ok. It seems that play1.x.jar is in your classpath. As CorePlugin exist in Play1.x only. Please remove that.
