@zhanyi8866 This is a known issue. Please use the master branch if you plan to use sample data. Closing as duplicate of #1636 , #1610 , and #1757.

I have tried installing from master branch with sample data on my local with Windows 7 and the installation takes too much time especially at 98% it stuck for an hour.

@afroz92 do you have xdebug enabled? It will slow it down considerably. Sample data does take a while, please be patient.

I have added
php_value xdebug.max_nesting_level 500
in my .htaccess file . Does this value makes difference? Shall i make it 200?

zhany you rock!

Thank you for your procedure list, I have been having such a hard time getting this to work and you saved me. The only thing that I had to do differently was install from the command line. I also had to reset the owner and permissions of the install directory at the end in order to see the data.
