Wowza installer continue asking for JAVA_HOME but it is specified

Question

I have installation issue with Wowza Streaming Engine. I'm continue to get the following error:

---------------------------
Java JDK or Java Server JRE Required
---------------------------
A JAVA_HOME environment variable pointing at a Java JDK or server JRE v1.6 or higher is required to install the Wowza Streaming Engine. The installer will now exit.

For more information go to http://www.wowza.com/jvm.

Would you like for the installer to take you there before exiting?
---------------------------
Yes   No   
---------------------------

Java JDK JRE 1.7 installed and JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables are updated. What else should I change to pass through the installer check.

is it JRE or JDK1.7 installed? if its JRE may be it requires JDK, try installing JDK. — sakura, Apr 08 '14 at 19:46

It turned out that java portal chosen a wrong processor architecture and I downloaded and installed x86 version. I was forced to manually switch to x64 JRE, download it and re-isntall java.

After that everything start working as expected.
