If it works in a shell and the shell finds it with the help of LD_LIBRARY_PATH then you need to make sure eclipse sees the same env variable. If eclipse already loads a libjvm.so file for its own use, you need to ensure it's the same version as the one you're trying to load with PyLucene. These are just guesses, I don't use eclipse.
