I hate to sound like the IT Crowd, but have you tried turning it off and on again ?

Seriously, the latest version of the Lucene plugin has upgraded to Lucene v5.1 which has some API differences with the old version the plugin used.

The latest version of ctags plugin also uses Lucene and it have been upgraded to work with Lucene v5.1.

Also I had the same issue when I did the upgrade, and restarting jEdit worked for me. I suspect the classloader still had the old version of the Lucene library lying around, and restarting meant that the right version of Lucene was loaded.

If you still see the issue, can you please post the errors from the activity log

Yes, but still same error.

Perhaps you have some old .jar files left over from a previous lucene install?
Go to plugin manager - find orphan and see if you can clean up any old JARs that way.
