Every time I've had that issue it was because mod_rewrite wasn't set.
Perhaps the installer should check by running apache2ctl -l (must be
root, though) and if it's not found explain how to add it. What works
for me is run 'a2enmod rewrite', change 'AllowOverRide None' in
/etc/apache/sites-available/default to 'AllowOverRide All' and restart
apache.
