The recommended approach is to do what Spring Boot does - build
a jar that has all its dependent jars in a directory. A jar is just a zip file
so you can either unzip it before running or have the start up program
set the classpath to the directory inside the zip. Of course, that may
mean you n

When you run as an uber jar you are most likely breaking things.
Log4j uses a file named Log4j2Plugins.dat to define its plugins. Every jar that
has Log4j plugins will have one. When you create an uber jar most likely only
one is left and it probably doesn’t contain the core Log4j stuff.

Here is another interesting thing.
If I remove the log4j-1.2-api dependency from the pom, then the when I try
