原因是引用了两个关于log4j的jar,造成死循环

log4j-over-slf4j-1.7.7.jar

slf4j-log4j12-1.7.7.jar

但只引用slf4j-log4j12-1.7.7.jar会提示org.apache.log4j.Level这个class找不到

要使用log4j记录日志，其实只用引用log4j-over-slf4j-1.7.7.jar就可以了，一般在maven中引入其他依赖时，可以排除对log4j的引用：

<exclusion>
    <groupid>log4j</groupid>
    <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
    <groupid>org.slf4j</groupid>
    <artifactId>elf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
</exclusion>
