Uninstall it and remove any previous databases or files in your htdocs directory that were created by the previous installation attempt. Then go to Softalicious and try to install again.
The people having this problem seem to refer to database issues. (e.g. database is too large). After you uninstalled WordPress you removed your previous databases?
One guy suggested this:
Another potential issue could be related to the size and complexity of the imported data. If you’re importing a large amount of content with numerous attachments, the process might take longer, and a timeout could occur, resulting in the stuck import.
Another guy said:
I left the same database there, but:
a) Selected ALL tables
b) TRUNCATED all tables (the “Empty” option on the dropdown in PhpMyAdmin)
Restored, and it FOR ONCE, did not hang at 95%.
Previously, I had tried with the existing database (which, in my case, with some plugins that were causing issues).
I also tried by renaming the database so the restoring one might work … no go.
So I think that emptying out the tables to avoid my issue (duplicate index in PRIMARY) did the job.
I don’t know if these are relevant to your case. But, I’m not an expert on WordPress installation. I’m just searching around looking for answers. Other people have reported this issue with Softaculous and WordPress too. They seem to think it’s related to the database size or plugins. I don’t know. I’ve never encountered this before. Someone who knows more than me will have to chime in and help you troubleshoot this problem.
@solace-ken Is there a specific step to delete your database, am not sure if i did that, the only thing i would have done is delete all the folders in the htdocs file, would that count as to deleting your database, if not can you please let me know the steps to check and do that if not done?
I think you mean these Databases right? under phpmyadmin?
