</pre>
* Configure Redis connection settings
<pre>
cp config/resque.yml.example config/resque.yml
</pre>
* Configure bundler to build nokogiri using system libraries :
<pre>
bundle config build.nokogiri "--use-system-libraries"
</pre>
*NOTE*: This is required to prevent an error building nokogiri during install
* Configure bundler to build rugged using system libraries :
<pre>
bundle config build.rugged "--use-system-libraries"
</pre>
*NOTE*: This is required to prevent an error building rugged during install
* Install GitLab gems
<pre>
bundle install --deployment --without development test mysql aws
</pre>
h2. Install GitLab Shell
* Run the installation task for gitlab-shell (replace `REDIS_URL` if needed)
<pre>
bundle exec rake gitlab:shell:install[v2.6.3] REDIS_URL=redis://localhost:6379 RAILS_ENV=production
</pre>
By default, the gitlab-shell config is generated from your main gitlab config.
* You can review (and modify) the gitlab-shell config as follows:
<pre>
vi /home/git/gitlab-shell/config.yml
</pre>
#* *NOTE*: I needed to set the @gitlab_url@ parameter to http://localhost:8080 for the gitlab-shell API backend to work properly.
* Initialize Database and Activate Advanced Features
<pre>
bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production
</pre>
* Verify that the install worked:
<pre>
bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
</pre>
* Precompile the assets used by GitLab:
<pre>
bundle exec rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production
</pre>
* Exit out of the GitLab user, back into the root account:
<pre>
exit
</pre>
* Create an init script
<pre>
cp /usr/home/git/gitlab/lib/support/init.d/gitlab /usr/local/etc/rc.d/gitlab
</pre>
* Start GitLab
<pre>
service gitlab start
</pre>
* Enable GitLab to start at boot
<pre>
echo 'gitlab_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
</pre>
h1. GitLab on Nginx
h2. Install Nginx
* Install Nginx
<pre>
portmaster www/nginx
</pre>
#* *NOTE*: Make sure to enable *@[X]PASSENGER@* during the port configuration
* Start and enable nginx at boot:
<pre>
echo 'nginx_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service nginx start
</pre>
h2. Install Phusion Passenger
* Reinstall Nginx with Passenger support
<pre>
portmaster www/rubygem-passenger
</pre>
#* *NOTE*: Make sure to enable *@[X]NGINX@* during the port configuration
#* _Optional_: Enable *@[X]SYMLINK@* during the port configuration to make upgrading passenger easier later on.
* Edit the main nginx config file:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
</pre>
#* And add the Passenger config parameters:
<pre>
#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;
error_log /var/log/nginx-error.log;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
#keepalive_timeout 0;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#gzip on;
# Load Phusion Passenger module globally
passenger_root /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.1/gems/passenger;
passenger_ruby /usr/local/bin/ruby21;
passenger_max_pool_size 15;
passenger_pool_idle_time 300;
# Load config files from the /etc/nginx/conf.d directory
include /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}
</pre>
#* *NOTE*: The above config assumes [X]SYMLINK was enabled during the port configuration. Match the config according to which ever version of passenger is installed at @/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.1/gems@.
* Now create a git server block:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/nginx/conf.d/git.example.com.conf
</pre>
#* And add the following:
<pre>
server {
listen 80;
server_name git.example.com;
# enforce https
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name git.example.com;
ssl_certificate /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl/git.example.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /usr/local/etc/nginx/ssl/git.example.com.key;
root /home/git/gitlab/public;
passenger_enabled on;
passenger_user git;
passenger_group git;
# set max upload size
client_max_body_size 1G;
fastcgi_buffers 64 4K;
}
</pre>
h1. GitLab on Apache
Running GitLab from an apache server using phusion passenger is simple.
* Edit the virtual host definition and add/modify it according to your needs:
<pre>
vi /usr/local/etc/apache24/Vhosts/git.example.com.conf
</pre>
#* And add/edit the following virtual host definition:
<pre>
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/home/git/gitlab/public"
ServerName git.example.com
ErrorLog "/var/log/git.example.com-error_log"
CustomLog "/var/log/git.example.com-access_log" common
PassengerRuby /usr/local/bin/ruby
<Directory /home/git/gitlab/public>
Options -MultiViews
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
</pre>
* Restart apache:
<pre>
service apache24 restart
</pre>
* Start and enable apache24 at boot:
<pre>
echo 'apache24_enable="YES"' >> /etc/rc.conf
service apache24 start
</pre>
h1. Initial Login
The default username and password:
* user: *root*
* pass: *5iveL!fe*
