Answer 1

Please use localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php than www/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php.

Answer 2

@Anoop provided the solution.
When you manually configure port.
Sometime its necessary to include port with your localhost.
Ex: localhost:8080/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php
(8080 is my port number, it can be different for yours)
