I had refered the question on WordPress Installation not getting completed but it could not help me.
Can anyone sort this out.
WordPress is normally a breeze to install.
Have you read this Famous 5-Minute Install and the pre-requisites on the same page.
I had the same problem, I resolved it after finding this: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/installation-hangs-on-step-2-after-creating-basic-dbs-without-admin-user?replies=16
so i just edited the php.ini file as suggested in that post (increased the max_execution_time) and it worked for me.
I had the same issue. The fix for me was that I needed to include the port onto the localhost when assigning the database host.
Like: localhost:8080.
