Magento 2 - Setup page not displaying correctly

Question

I am trying to install a magento 2 on an OVH shared hosting with a private sql server. I copied a magento 2 new package and I am currently encountering the following error when trying to launch the setup :

http://xxxxxx/setup/index.php/navigation Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
http://xxxxxx/setup/index.php/navigation/side-menu Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
http://xxxxxx/setup/index.php/navigation/header-bar Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)

Then after some time waiting on the page i get this :

angular.js:7715 POST http://xxxxxx/setup/index.php/session/prolong 404 (Not Found)

The setup works fine in local, what should I do ?

It isn't a Symlink error, I already modified the "virtualType name="developerMaterialization" section, and deleted files under pub/static.

My errors are angular.js errors.

No, this is a different error and the fixes of your topic didn't work for me. — Malcom, May 11 '16 at 10:53
Did you check if file permissions are as recommended? Looks like setup folder is not readable by webuser. — Maddy, May 11 '16 at 20:44
I changed file permissions as recommended and it is still not working. — Malcom, May 19 '16 at 14:06

I fix this by the https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/2504#issuecomment-159663316

Here is the code

My nginx site config

upstream fastcgi_backend {
    server unix:/var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN_NAME;
    set $MAGE_ROOT YOUR_MAGENTO_FILE_PATH;
    set $MAGE_MODE developer;
    include YOUR_MAGENTO_FILE_PATH/nginx.conf.sample;
}

2.Modify the nginx.conf.sample file

    location /setup {
        root $MAGE_ROOT;

        location ~ ^/setup/index.php {

            ### This fixes the problem:
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
            ################################

            fastcgi_pass   fastcgi_backend;
            fastcgi_index  index.php;
            fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            include        fastcgi_params;
        }

    }

Open th url in the browser

http://YOUR_IP_OR_DOMAIN_NAME/setup

Hi, Wen Wei, I tried using your solution. and it worked perfectly in my Magento 2.1.8 using nginx. Thanks again — MazeStricks, Sep 15 '17 at 17:03
Restart nginx after making this change. sudo service nginx restart — Nahid, Nov 18 '18 at 00:42

I understand your situation so here is my solution form magento installation virtualhost for nginx.

Just u have to change php-fpm address according to your configuration
Set mage_root according to your magento installation folder.
Comment the cgi.fix_pathinfo=0 by ;cgi.fix_pathinfo=0
Also php-fpm config file www.conf must have user nginx like
user = nginx
group = nginx
listen.owner = nginx
listen.group = nginx
listen.mode = 0660
You php session dir must have ownership of nginx.
Here is Nginx VirtualHost Configuration file for magento2:> If u dont understand download this clean text file from this link.... https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MI0JKx5Gx_dLFz2c6fyubgpSmM_TESux/view?usp=sharing Download VirtualHost file
