My website was working fine until I added some themes to the sites->all->themes folder.
Now it redirects me to the install.php page which gives a message 'Drupal already installed'.

Thank you for reporting this issue. In an unusual case like this it is beneficial to add more information to the issue summary. This could be the steps to reproduce the issue or other supporting information. I tagged the issue "Needs issue summary update" to indicate the need for more information. The tag should be removed when more information is added.

In this particular issue it would be good to know which files you changed.

I found the solution to this issue.
See the solution given by bryancasler on the page https://www.drupal.org/node/984112

How to fix this problem

Go to xampp\mysql\bin
Open my.ini
Change "max_allowed_packet" from "1m" to "16m"
Save my.ini
Now restart MySql through the XAMPP control panel.

Thanks.
