SYMPTOMS
When you install SharePoint Portal Server, the Setup program may stop responding (hang) at the end of the process while Setup tries to install the client components. The server may hang indefinitely.

When you cancel the installation, logs are generated in the appropriate location. By default, the log files are created in the following folder:

\Microsoft Integration\SharePoint Portal Server\Logs

When you analyze the Spsclisrv.log file, the log contains numerous invoked time-out errors:
