 * I was installing WordPress 4.x and kept getting a loop following the “All Right
   Sparky run the install” screen. The install would loop back to the choose a language
   screen.
 * Somehow the wp-config-sample.php file had been deleted. I uploaded and the install
   ran as it should.

 * That would not cause that but missing other files may have.

 * I guess that it was some kind of error on the server as that’s the only file 
   I uploaded. I was a little surprise that worked.
