That's... interesting[tm].

It's especially interesting because setup.php starts with
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__).'/common.php');
which has
    require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../common.php');
and that one has
    $incpath = dirname(__FILE__);
    if (!is_file("$incpath/config.inc.php")) {
        die("config.inc.php is missing!");
    }
    require_once("$incpath/config.inc.php");

so setup.php should fail _before_ printing the header, and before 
printing the failure about finding config.inc.php.

This indicates that require_once() can read config.inc.php.

To confirm that, please introduce a syntax error in config.inc.php, and 
then run setup.php on the commandline again. You should see a message 
about that syntax error.

Looks good.

One idea I have is the way how setup.php checks for config.local.php:

    $file_config = file_exists(realpath("./../config.inc.php"));

    $file_local_config = file_exists(realpath("./../config.local.php"));

Note the realpath() call, which means resolving all symlinks.
Does the path /usr/share/webapps/postfixAdmin/public/ include any 
symlinked part?

If in doubt, add
    echo "\n\n file_config: $file_config  local $file_local_config \n\n"
to setup.php (directly under the lines quoted above) and check the 
result.

Also note that there's a fallback check for config.local.php:

    // Fall back to looking in /etc/postfixadmin for config.local.php 
    // (Debian etc)
    if (!$file_local_config && is_dir('/etc/postfixadmin')) {
        $file_local_config = file_exists(
            '/etc/postfixadmin/config.local.php');
    }

which can mean
a) try to create a /etc/postfixadmin/config.local.php and check if 
   setup.php finds it
b) make sure your PHP open_basedir allows access to /etc/postfixadmin/

... irrelevant, at least until the problems with config.inc.php and 
config.local.php are solved ;-)

I checked them, and didn't see an obvious error.
That's not surprising because the syntax check already confirmed that 
your config.*.php is ok, at least the first half of setup.php worked, 
and the nginx config is irrelevant when running php on the command line.
