You get this error because your Appender, or one of its dependencies, uses SLF4J for logging and that creates a recursive configuration problem for SLF4J/Logback - you need access to the logging context before the current logging context has been fully constructed. SLF4J solves this by giving the Logger a minimal logging context that won't log. Interestingly, I encountered the same problem in my work on Log4j 2.0 and was able to solve it in a different manner so that the subordinate Logger will work properly after the LoggerContext is fully configured.
The only concern here is if you really need logging to function within the components being set up during the construction of the Appender.
