GAPPS stuck on "Mounting partitions" in TWRP. Help.

[huzaifaharoon]

So I'm new to this whole custom ROM scene but I'll get straight to the point. I installed Resurrection Remix on my Moto E4 and then I flash GApps but it got stuck on "Mounting partitions" and stayed stuck for like an hour. I tried a different version of GApps then and the same thing happened. I don't know what to do and I have no clue what's even happening. Please someone explain this to a noob so I can get GApps installed on this phone. Mind you that Resurrection Remix installed fine and was even running when I booted the phone.

Having the same issue... Did you find a solution?

The issue was that I was booted into TWRP through fastboot instead of through a flashed recovery. Once I flashed the recovery partition and booted there, everything worked fine.
