[New SAP NetWeaver 7.01 ABAP Trial Version] - Installation issues

Question

Hi community
thanks to SAP for this trial release with MaxDB 7.7
Unfortunately the installation failed on my laptop. This is an extract of the error log:
(Aug 26, 2008 1:29:15 AM), Install, com.sap.installshield.CheckServicesAction, err, CheckServicesAction(bean17): Expected service (SAPNSP_00) is not currently running

STACK_TRACE: 15
ProductException: (error code = 200; message="Java error"; exception = [java.lang.Exception])
My problem is not completely new, there are some hint in the Troubleshooting Guide for NW2004s ABAP Trial Version (step 4)
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/downloaditem?rid=/library/uuid/6055f523-df6e-2910-f0bf-acccbb0a7d37
and on this post another user had a problem similar to mine
NW04s installation errors
I have jdk 1.6 installed on my machine but there are no environment variables for java executables.
Is my problem caused but the java previously installed on the machine? If so, I can remove the jdk and retry installation
In this case it could be useful in my opinion to include this issue in the FAQ, it can be helpful for other users too.
Best Regards,
Valerio
