Install package instead.

If XAMPP needs to be separate for other applications, do so in another drive.

You probably missed set of instructions to modify various PHP, Apache and MySQL limits or the machine is too slow for installation to finish loading within those standard limits. In this case change php.ini limit of 30 seconds at least for duration of the install.

All the PHP settings are already configured in the packages, both for Windows and Ubuntu/Debian. See attachment.

New users seem that think that doing it the hard way is somehow more advantageous. Perhaps it builds character.

Apologies to the OP.

Unable to resist the temptation of posting this analogy.

I am using LAMP to install EMR 4.1.2. I have Apache running in CentOS 6.4 (tested with my own index.html). I corrected DirectoryIndex in httpd.conf. But, when I access http://localhost/openemr, i see codes of /var/www/html/openemr/index.php file in browser. Any suggestion ?
