Magento 2.0.4 Installation Error at 36%

[digitaldoll]

WHY is this happening? Per my research it has something to do with my permissions but I didnt really want to preference this by saying that as it may NOT be MY problem. I've been working on this 2 weeks now Please give me some insight as to whats wrong or exactly WHAT permissions each folder should be. I dont understand what this permissions documentation means because I've changed those 3 folders(var, pub, and app/etc) to 770 and still got the error so please tell me what I'm missing.

I passed the readiness check with no problems. My site is on a VPS with PHP 5.6 and MySql 5.6.0

Please execute the php -v command from the command line standing in the Magento 2 root folder.

Hi Dmitry,

I'm not sure what that means but I forwarded it to my host and they told me to provide you with this:

Ive been obsessively stalking this thread since yesterday..... Anyone?

[digitaldoll]

Are there any Magento experts on this forum who care to assist with this problem?

[digitaldoll]

So 2.0.5 has been released and this is still happening. Also nearly a month later and still no feedback.... WHY?!?!!!!!!!

[Pektsekye]

Hello,

Ask your hosting support if they can install or enable PHP7 for you.

Then try to install Magento with PHP7

Does this got fix? I am having same issue I am pretty sure I am using php7

Don't try install Magento with pure FTP. allways likely to give corrupted filesystem

Plenty hosters providing a custom ready install. You dont even need to make database first with some.

Magento 2 runs with PHP 5.6 and MYSQL 5.6 No need for PHP 7.

On some hosters you might try a so called GIT install. Not allways succesfull. But fast.

FTP clients take hours! Major hosters also allow drag and drop a zip or tar.gz install download from Magento.com.

Be sure to CHMOD the required directories to right permissions.

1.x versions are called with INSTALL, 2.x versions are called with SETUP.

Broken maintenance routines are rstarred by removing that mainttenance flag file in the folder VAR

System back-ups from whole system from within Magento are likely to be never carried out. (Incompleted and in wrong folder). promides themes for certaijn versions might not work as promised. Most install instructions are poor.

Like those misleading composer stories. On a hoster you dont need composer.....

Yup, I did ran around bunches of FAQ's with people pointing to very interesting PHP adventures. At the end: You dont need to know any PHP, basic knowledge of PHP-admin only and a suitable hoster. Price tag not that important.

Got 2 running on a free account. The difficult part is setting up actual shop.
