quick-start installation stops responding

I am having the same issue: Everything freezes after a few clicks. I am on macOS 14.0 and PHP 8.2.11.

Any news on this 1.5 years old issue?

Quick Start is mentioned a few times in ✨ Recommend DDEV as the default Drupal local development environment Active .

Quick-start still freezes after around a minute of browsing in Drupal 10.2.1. I tried upping memory to memory_limit=512M but it still happens, so memory seems to not be the issue.

As a side effect of 📌 Evaluate the whole idea of the Evaluator guide Active I tried the Quick Start command today, and it doesn't seem to hang any more, it just works. So I am closing the issue, but feel free to re-open, if you can reproduce the problem :)

I used DDEV with this method to check:

git clone https://git.drupalcode.org/project/drupal.git qs && cd qs
ddev config --project-type php
ddev start
ddev composer install
ddev php -d memory_limit=256M core/scripts/drupal quick-start demo_umami

It was ready here: https://qs.ddev.site/

The update to SQLite 3.45 in Drupal 11 is a challenge, see Document or fix Drupal Quickstart command #7348.

Still an issue on 11.x branch.

Thanks for checking @sokru, it would be great if you could share your Operating System and PHP version, if possible?

@stasadev from DDEV graciously provided the commands to allow running quick-start using PHP's built in web server in DDEV, for development:

git clone https://git.drupalcode.org/project/drupal.git qs && cd qs
ddev config --project-type=drupal --webserver-type=generic --disable-settings-management
cat <<'EOF' > .ddev/config.drupal.yaml
web_extra_exposed_ports:
    - name: "drupal"
      container_port: 80
      http_port: 80
      https_port: 443
EOF
ddev start
ddev composer install
ddev php -d memory_limit=256M core/scripts/drupal quick-start demo_umami -vvv --host=0.0.0.0 --port=80 --suppress-login

Copy the last part of the "One time login url" and use like this to launch in your browser:
ddev launch /en/user/reset/1/1749022638/TPUL789[...]123abcz/login

From Document or fix Drupal Quickstart command #7348.

To verify that PHP's built in web server is used with the DDEV set up above, check the "Response Headers" in your browser. You should see X-Powered-By: PHP/8.3.21, and not DDEV standard Nginx (server: nginx) or DDEV using Apache (server: Apache/2.4.62 (Debian)).

Adding -vvv to the quick-start command seems to work, at least for DDEV https://github.com/ddev/ddev/issues/7348#issuecomment-2934263399

Or if there is a problem, -vvv can show more details.
