I am on Magento 2.3. I can’t access web setup wizard. This issue was supposed to be fixed (see issue https://github.com/magento/magento2/issues/5247)

@tlc033 fix does not work for me. Did a genius managed to fix that? A step by step would be much appreciated!

Solution for me was: Base URLs (Secure) -> Use Secure URLs on Storefront -> Yes -> Use Secure URLs in Admin -> Yes -> Enable HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) -> Yes -> Upgrade Insecure Requests -> Yes php bin/magento cache:clean https://yadi.sk/i/iPJi4k7X3S86Za I SOLVE THIS.

Also, there is no /setup folder in my /pub directory. Does the Symlink solution would still work? @TechnoBuddhist

What worked for me…

ln -s [magento-install-dir]/setup [magento-install-dir]/pub/setup

After installing mods/updates, remove the link

rm [magento-install-dir]/setup

If the symbolic link doesn’t work for you, check permissions and ownership(mine was set to nobody - the apache.http user)

chown [magento-user]:[magento-user] [magento-install-dir]/setup/*

Hope this helps!
