You need to use your CKAN instance configuration file (e.g. development.ini) that you have at some point generated with
$ paster make-config ckan development.ini

$ paster --plugin=ckanext-harvest harvester initdb --config=mysite.ini
Here mysite.ini is really <path to your config ini file>!

Not sure if it explains the recursion depth error, but it might very well.

Cheers
