Given everything else you've tried, I think you might be on the right track
here and somehow your environment variables are getting clobbered. How or why
I couldn't say (I'd suspect Tomcat, but you say you can't even run the
create-administator app).

The only other thing I can think of is that for some reason it's looking for
the wrong class. If dspace comes with the source, it might be worth checking
whether there isn't a mistake in the Class.forname() call.

I must admit, I don't know much java - can you use "strace" to track system
calls, or is there a similar utility that would let you see what files it is
searching for?
