Unable to run Magento 2 Web Setup on nginx

Question

I've downloaded Magento 2 and try to setup but getting blank page.

When I have checked nginx log file and I found below the log.

FastCGI sent in stderr: "Access to the script '/var/www/html/magento2/demo/setup/index.php/navigation' has been denied (see security.limit_extensions)" while reading response header from upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 224.example.com, request: "GET /setup/index.php/navigation HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock:", host: "224.example.com", referrer: "http://224.example.com/setup/"; 2018/05/23 16:58:47 [error] 18961#18961: 319 FastCGI sent in stderr: "Access to the script '/var/www/html/magento2/demo/setup/index.php/navigation/side-menu' has been denied (see security.limit_extensions)" while reading response header from upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 224.example.com, request: "GET /setup/index.php/navigation/side-menu HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock:", host: "224.example.com", referrer: "http://224.example.com/setup/"; 2018/05/23 16:58:47 [error] 18959#18959: *377 FastCGI sent in stderr: "Access to the script '/var/www/html/magento2/demo/setup/index.php/navigation/header-bar' has been denied (see security.limit_extensions)" while reading response header from upstream, client: 127.0.0.1, server: 224.example.com, request: "GET /setup/index.php/navigation/header-bar HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock:", host: "224.example.com", referrer: "http://224.example.com/setup/";

Solved:

Changed nginx.conf.sample setup location block to:

Default Magento nginx.conf.sample file need to replace.

location ~* ^/setup($|/) {
    root $MAGE_ROOT;
    location ~ ^/setup/index.php {
        fastcgi_pass   fastcgi_backend;

        fastcgi_param  PHP_FLAG  "session.auto_start=off \n suhosin.session.cryptua=off";
        fastcgi_param  PHP_VALUE "memory_limit=768M \n max_execution_time=600";
        fastcgi_read_timeout 600s;
        fastcgi_connect_timeout 600s;

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

    location ~ ^/setup/(?!pub/). {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ ^/setup/pub/ {
        add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
    }
}

Replace with:

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;
    }

    location ~ ^/setup/(?!pub/). {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ ^/setup/pub/ {
        add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
    }
}

No need to Replace whole code in nginx.conf.sample just replace location ~* ^/setup($|/) to location ^/setup($|/) .

Because issue is ~* sign before setup Url, browser doesn't understand this
