This error suggests that you don't have libjvm.so available to the server
process. You seem to be setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH appropriately, but it's
not clear when/where you are settting this. You need to start your server
with this environment, not the deployer. Note that setting it in your
environment and then running an init script is unlikely to work. I'm not
familiar with Suse start scripts, but usually the easiest thing to do is
to just modify the start script itself to set this environment variable.
