Applying theme from Site Library hangs at 'Importing Site Content'

Hi there,
Since updating to the most recent versions of your plugin and theme, I am unable to activate a theme from the 'Site Library'. Even after a few hours, it just hangs at 'Importing content'. Can't seem to get past this step anymore. Help would be appreciated, thanks.
Hi Basia,
Can you try importing any theme w/ all plugins disabled except for GP Premium?
Let us know how it goes.
Hi Elvin, how long should this last step take? It's been about 15 minutes and it is still hanging at "Importing content" after trying your suggestion.
Hi there,
can you go Dashboard > Tools > Site Health.
Click Info, and then expand the Server Tab. Then copy and paste the server settings here or provide a screenshot of them.

I am having the same issue. Trying to install the "App" theme and it gets stuck on "importing content". Clean wordpress install with no other plugins installed.
I tried changing the limits and it doesn't help.

I can confirm updating the server settings worked for me. I hope your issue gets resolved soon, Jeana.
Glad to hear that Basia!!
Jeanna, i would try increasing the Max input time to 600
If its still an issue, please raise a new topic where we can do some more debugging.
Thank you both. After reading a few other threads I setup the debug and saw that my server was missing php-xml. That did the trick (without having to increase any of the limits).
Glad to hear you found the solution!!
I did all these changes you suggest but it is not importing. It stucks
