Yup. So what you've got here is a situation where the linker found
libz.so, but it doesn't get found by the dynamic loader. This sort of
configuration error is unfortunately common, because the search rules
are all-too-often different for the two programs. You probably need to
make sure that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set to include /usr/local/lib.
I'm not sure that's exactly the right recipe for Solaris, however.

Next time try
# echo $PATH
What you tried to do was execute a program named the same as your path.
