Anyways the latest deployed version is 5.14.1, but the designer Version I got from the designer-update site is Version

I'm facing the same problem here.
Is there any workaround to fix this issue?

Well this is actually not realy a solution, but you can pull the git, and start the activiti designer from your workspace.
You end up with two different instances of Eclipse, but it works… Maybe this will help you.

I've faced a similar issue (but with a different exception) and the solution proposed by cocojack42 has worked fine enough for my use case.

There is a nice step-by-step guide on how to build this development environment here –> http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_72ef7bea0102vmt2.html
This guide is kind of made from the information provided by the Activiti forums user "peilers" in this post –> http://forums.activiti.org/content/eclipse-plug-unable-instantiate-class-orgactivitidesignereclipseeditoractivitidiagrameditor

I had to downgrade to eclipse Juno to make this happen, sadly. I hade issues with some modeler plugins in Kepler.
