I am having the “Module 'Magento_ConfigurableSampleData': 68%” problem.
This problem has come up before, but none of the proposed solutions work. I have tried all the various solutions I found on the Web and in Magento’s help files, but still having this problem. Anyone have any other solutions? Am I missing anything obvious? Is there a way to insert a heartbeat into the code so I can mark its progress and debug further?
System details
My hosting service is DreamHost (with DreamCompute), my domain is <domain>, the server is <server> and it is running Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS (as determined by executing “lsb_release -a”). I access my user space with SSH using PuTTY on a Windows machine and all that works normally. I access my user space using an FTP client, and all that works normally. I log in to SSH as <user>. The domain is configured so that its webroot is at /home/<user>/<domain>.
Checking that all the necessary pieces are in place:
[<server>]$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
Release: 14.04
Codename: trusty
[<server>]$ cd ~
[<server>]$ pwd

[<server>]$ cat /home/<user>/<domain>/phpinfo.php
<?php

phpinfo();
?>
From a regular browser, go to http://www.<domain>/phpinfo.php and it reports:
Core: max_execution_time 18000 16123 (Local Value, Master Value)
I reboot everything and come back the next day. So, that tells me I am configured correctly, that I am accessing the right files via HTTP and all the settings have propagated. (I don’t know if I am running nginx or Varnish.)
Next, installation:
1) Downloaded tarball to Windows because there is no Magento permalink to the tarball Magento-CE-2.2.0_sample_data-2017-09-26-08-07-27.tar.gz
2) FTP’ed the tarball to /home/<user>
3) extracted it:
[<server>]$ tar -xvf /home/<user>/<domain>/ Magento-CE-2.2.0_sample_data-2017-09-26-08-07-27.tar.gz ./<domain>
4) Set up fresh database and provided it the appropriate permissions and users. I know setup has permissions because it goes to 70 MB or so during install.
5) From a regular browser, I go to http://www.<domain>/setup and run from there. Readiness check clears, I enter the database details, customize the store be leaving all modules checked. “Step 6: Install You're ready!”
I watch the console. It gets to 68% and hangs on “Module 'Magento_ConfigurableSampleData': 68%”
Delete the database and start back on step 4 and repeat. Same result.
Delete the entire directory from /home/<user>/<domain> down except for /home/<user>/<domain>/phpinfo.php and reinstall from step 3. Same result.
Repeat at step 3 and step 4 several times.
