Intellij ce and Vaadin

Hi,
I am able to run the example project (tutorial Vaadin 10-) on Jetty server, however when attempting to run it on Apache Tomcat, I am encountering the following error:

SEVERE: Unable to process Jar entry [META-INF/versions/9/module-info.class]
from Jar [jar:file:/C:/Users/aran/.m2/repository/net/bytebuddy/byte-buddy/1.9.3/byte-buddy-1.9.3.jar!/]
for annotations

I added Apache Tomcat to Intellij ce as an external tool in Tools → External Tools
I added Tomcat to the project as a Maven Template (tomcat7:run) in the configurations section at the top right hand side.
This works fine with projects created using the Maven webapp archetype, however not with a Maven Vaadin archetype.
I have Apache Tomcat/9.0.33 installed.

It is inferred that there may be perhaps a version compatibility issue relating to Java versions.

Please advise and thanks in advance,

Eran
