[rules-users] ClasscastException in drools ant task

Hi All, I am trying to build a sample drools project using ant and getting the below error. I am using "drools-distribution-5.4.0.Final" release jars in my project. Unable to get this issue resolved as not sure what really went wrong. RuleBaseTask failed: Unable to load dialect 'org.drools.rule.builder.dialect.mvel.MVELDialectConfiguration:mvel:org.drools.rule.builder.dialect.mvel.MVELDialectConfiguration' at
