This may or may not solve your installation problem, but you should consider trying the latest development release 2.11.65 since it's actually more stable than 2.10.33 at this point. In fact it will become the latest stable release 2.12 very soon. It's at least worth a try to download 2.11.65 and see if the installation proceeds correctly.
