  First try to increase the max\_execution\_time of your server in php.ini file. As the post installation process may take time long enough that time out occurs.
  
  Also you can find more about the Installation Canary [here](https://civicrm.stackexchange.com/questions/15594/what-is-the-installation-canary).
  
  Hope this helps.
