Problems with log4j2 > 2.12 and maven assembly

I have created a simple java application to debug my problem but i am still blocked. I create a jar with maven assembly but i have this error at startup:

D:\Workspace_java11\testlog4j\target>java -Dlog4j.configurationFile=log4j2.xml -jar testlog4j-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

Here is my maven configuration:

Here is my java code:

package testlog4j;

import org.apache.log4j.Logger;

public class Tester {

    private static final Logger LOG = Logger.getLogger(Tester.class);
            
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        LOG.info("test log");
    }
}

Here is my log4j2.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="INFO">
    <Appenders>
        <Console name="console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
            <PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/>
        </Console>
    </Appenders>
    <Loggers>
        <Root level="info">
            <AppenderRef ref="console" />
        </Root>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

The weird thing is that it works perfectly with log4j dependencies < 2.13 but it fails when i upgrade to 2.13 or 2.14. I have tested both java 8 and java 11 for the same results.

Any idea about what is wrong here?

Edit:

If it can help, here is the output using -Dlog4j2.debug:
