NetWeaver 04 SneakPreview Slim Error FSl-06002 Error 1060

Question

I am running on Windows XP pro SP2 with 768 RAM. This is virtually an identical problem as raised by Ngoc Pham.
My system and DB have the ID J2E
The installation hangs during the SAP system installation (phase 2 of 24). Below is an extract from the log:
INFO 2005-09-16 21:46:28
Stopping SAP system services for J2E.
ERROR 2005-09-16 21:46:28
FSL-06002  Error 1060 (The specified service does not exist as an installed service.
) in execution of a 'OpenService' function, line (266), with parameter (SAPOsCol).

the installation does continue and ends at
INFO 2005-09-16 21:48:19
Execution of the command "C:\usr\sap\J2E\SCS01\exe\sapstartsrv.exe -r -q -p C:\usr\sap\J2E\SYS\profile\START_SCS01_ToshibaC28 -s J2E -n 01 -U ToshibaC28\SAPServiceJ2E -P XXXXXX -e ToshibaC28\j2eadm" finished with return code 0. Output: Service succesfully installed.
In addition to these error messages there were also several warning messages, the significance of which I cannot estimate. They were as follows:
WARNING[E] 2005-09-16 21:38:46
Error converting from service name=sapmsJ2E/protocol=tcp to port number. SAPRETURN=12
WARNING[E] 2005-09-16 21:38:46

While copying files to 'C:\usr\sap\J2E\SCS01\exe': source file 'C:/Documents and Settings/Adrian/My Documents/Downloads/SAP/Netweaver/NT/I386/UNINSAP.EXE' not found.
The services file had the following entries added before the installation hung:
sapdp01     3201/tcp     # SAP System Dispatcher Port
sapdp01s     4701/tcp     # SAP System Dispatcher Security Port
sapgw01s     4801/tcp     # SAP System Gateway Security Port
sapgw00s     4800/tcp     # SAP System Gateway Security Port
sapmsJ2E     3601/tcp     # SAP System Message Port
I would be grateful for any help.

I'm willing to bet the bank you are attempting a re-install after a previous (possibly failed) installation attempt.
There's no way to truly uninstall the Sneak Preview once you have attempted a previous install. If you're on XP then use a System Restore (Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore) and select a restore point on a date BEFORE you ever tried to install the Sneak Preview. After you do, the machine will reboot. Make sure all your prerequisites are still intact and run the install and it should work.
I did this myself after one week of banging my head on this. Best of luck --Shibli
