is it possible to force build.gradle use log4j2 for task logs?

I want to use log4j2 appenders for gradle's task logs. for example, when I run simple build command I see below stdout logs.
> Task :test FAILED
TestserverApplicationTests > contextLoads() FAILED

And I am trying get above logs via log4j appender, but I only log application level logs instead of gradle build task logs.
Is it possible such job in configuration changes in build.gradle?

Error: Command failed: ./gradlew app:installDebug -PreactNativeDevServerPort=8081 (React Native)

I have been facing this error for 2 days on Linux(Ubuntu 20.04) machine, and I have tried almost every possible solution found on stack-overflow and git-hub but I could'not resolve this. Any idea about this error?

Dropwizard + Gradle fatJar for project with subprojects pulls in gradle-api-5.4.1.jar deps

I have a Gradle project that as a simple example looks similar to this:
root
|
|build.gradle.kts
|settings.gradle.kts
|config.yaml
|web/
|build.gradle.kts
|src/
|main/
|java....(etc)
The web project is a barebones Dropwizard app that does nothing other than declare a configuration and an application that uses it so that the server can start up.
In my root path, I have defined my subproject (:web in this case) in the settings.gradle.kts file. In my root build.gradle.kts, I have a implementation(project(":web")) dependency declared.
I have a run task and a fatJar task to run/build this app.
val run by tasks.getting(JavaExec::class) {
args("server", "config.yaml")
}
val fatJar = task("fatJar", type = Jar::class) {
manifest {
attributes["Implementation-Title"] = "Some API"
attributes["Main-Class"] = "my.package.web.HelloWorldApplication"
}
from(configurations.runtimeClasspath.get().map({ if (it.isDirectory) it else zipTree(it) }))
with(tasks.jar.get() as CopySpec)
}
tasks {
"build" {
dependsOn(fatJar)
}
}
I can build the fatJar and it contains what appears to be all the classes I expect (dependencies at root, dependencies of web, their transitive dependencies, etc).
However, when I run ./gradlew run I get an error starting the Dropwizard app due to multiple logging bindings found on the class path. Error is below:
./gradlew run

I know I can remove logback from Dropwizard but I'd really rather figure out why gradle-api-5.4.1.jar is being bundled into my application. I can't for the life of me figure it out and don't understand why it would be pulled in.
Any direction would be appreciated.
Thanks

So my mistake in both asking this question and in what I was doing was that I failed to mention or realize that I was applying the kotlin-dsl plugin in my root script on accident. Once I removed this, everything worked as I expected.

You have to add the following in the dependency section of your build.gradle file.
dependencies {
compile('io.dropwizard:dropwizard-core:1.2.2') {
exclude group: 'org.slf4j', module: 'slf4j-api'
}
}
