Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-167:
------------------------------------

How did you call Configurator.initialize in such a way that the implementation 
found in log4j-core couldn't be located?
                
> ClassCastException from SimpleLoggerContext to core.LoggerContext, since it 
> implements spi.LoggerContext

> When calling Configurator.initialize(<Name>, null, <File>) it calls 
> LogManager.getContext(loader, false) and if no logging implementation can be 
> found this method returns a new SimpleLoggerContext (created by the factory 
> which in turn is created in the static part of the class). This class 
> implements spi.LoggerContext but the Configurator tries to cast it to 
> core.LoggerContext, which fails since SimpleLoggerContext does not extend 
> that class.
