I had the same effect. It was because the mirror i have chosen was commented out because it could not be verified. After fixing this problem and an apt-get update tasksel worked normally.
This is a bug but not within tasksel. The installer should warn when such a
mirror is chosen and if it is commented out.
Kind Regards,
Andreas
