This installation guide was created for Debian/Ubuntu and tested on it. Please read doc/install/requirements.md for hardware and platform requirements.

This installation guide is recommended to set up a production server. If you want a development environment please use the Vargrant virtual machine since it makes it much easier to set up all the dependencies for integration testing.

Important Note:The following steps have been known to work. If you deviate from this guide, do it with caution and make sure you don't violate any assumptions GitLab makes about its environment. For things like AWS installation scripts, init scripts or config files for alternative web server have a look at the Advanced Setup Tips section.

Important Note:If you find a bug/error in this guide please submit an issue or pull request following the contribution guide.

Overview

The GitLab installation consists of setting up the following components:

Packages / Dependencies
Ruby
System Users
GitLab shell
Database
GitLab
Nginx

1. Packages / Dependencies

sudo is not installed on Debian by default. Make sure your system is up-to-date and install it.

# run as rootapt-get updateapt-get upgradeapt-get install sudo

Note:Vim is an editor that is used here whenever there are files that need to be edited by hand. But, you can use any editor you like instead.

# Install vimsudo apt-get install -y vim

Install the required packages:

sudo apt-get install -y build-essential zlib1g-dev libyaml-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev libreadline-dev libncurses5-dev libffi-dev curl git-core openssh-server redis-server postfix checkinstall libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libicu-dev

Make sure you have the right version of Python installed.

# Install Pythonsudo apt-get install python# Make sure that Python is 2.5+ (3.x is not supported at the moment)python --version# If it's Python 3 you might need to install Python 2 separatelysudo apt-get install python2.7# Make sure you can access Python via python2python2 --version# If you get a "command not found" error create a link to the python binarysudo ln -s /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python2

2. Ruby

Download and compile it:

mkdir /tmp/ruby && cd /tmp/rubycurl --progress http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p327.tar.gz | tar xzcd ruby-1.9.3-p327./configuremakesudo make install

Install the Bundler Gem:

sudo gem install bundler

3. System Users

Create a git user for Gitlab:

sudo adduser --disabled-login --gecos 'GitLab' git

4. GitLab shell

GitLab Shell is a ssh access and repository management software developed specially for GitLab.

# Login as gitsudo su git# Go to home directorycd /home/git# Clone gitlab shellgit clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-shell.gitcd gitlab-shellcp config.yml.example config.yml# Edit config and replace gitlab_url# with something like 'http://domain.com/'vim config.yml# Do setup./bin/install

5. Database

To setup the MySQL/PostgreSQL database and dependencies please see doc/install/databases.md.

6. GitLab

# We'll install GitLab into home directory of the user "git"cd /home/git

Clone the Source

# Clone GitLab repositorysudo -u git -H git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq.git gitlab# Go to gitlab dircd /home/git/gitlab# Checkout to stable releasesudo -u git -H git checkout 5-0-stable

Note:You can change 5-0-stable to master if you want the bleeding edge version, but do so with caution!

Configure it

cd /home/git/gitlab# Copy the example GitLab configsudo -u git -H cp config/gitlab.yml.example config/gitlab.yml# Make sure to change "localhost" to the fully-qualified domain name of your# host serving GitLab where necessarysudo -u git -H vim config/gitlab.yml# Make sure GitLab can write to the log/ and tmp/ directoriessudo chown -R git log/sudo chown -R git tmp/sudo chmod -R u+rwX  log/sudo chmod -R u+rwX  tmp/# Create directory for satellitessudo -u git -H mkdir /home/git/gitlab-satellites# Create directory for pids and make sure GitLab can write to itsudo -u git -H mkdir tmp/pids/sudo chmod -R u+rwX  tmp/pids/# Copy the example Unicorn configsudo -u git -H cp config/unicorn.rb.example config/unicorn.rb

Important Note:Make sure to edit both files to match your setup.

Configure GitLab DB settings

# Mysqlsudo -u git cp config/database.yml.mysql config/database.yml# PostgreSQLsudo -u git cp config/database.yml.postgresql config/database.yml

Make sure to update username/password in config/database.yml.

Install Gems

cd /home/git/gitlabsudo gem install charlock_holmes --version '0.6.9'# For MySQL (note, the option says "without")sudo -u git -H bundle install --deployment --without development test postgres# Or for PostgreSQLsudo -u git -H bundle install --deployment --without development test mysql

Initialise Database and Activate Advanced Features

sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production

Install Init Script

Download the init script (will be /etc/init.d/gitlab):

sudo curl --output /etc/init.d/gitlab https://raw.github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-recipes/master/init.d/gitlabsudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/gitlab

Make GitLab start on boot:

sudo update-rc.d gitlab defaults 21

Check Application Status

Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:

sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production

To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check with:

sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production

If all items are green, then congratulations on successfully installing GitLab! However there are still a few steps left.

Start Your GitLab Instance

sudo service gitlab start# orsudo /etc/init.d/gitlab restart

7. Nginx

Note:If you can't or don't want to use Nginx as your web server, have a look at theAdvanced Setup Tips section.

Installation

sudo apt-get install nginx

Site Configuration

Download an example site config:

sudo curl --output /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab https://raw.github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-recipes/master/nginx/gitlabsudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/gitlab

Make sure to edit the config file to match your setup:

# Change **YOUR_SERVER_IP** and **YOUR_SERVER_FQDN**# to the IP address and fully-qualified domain name# of your host serving GitLabsudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab

Restart

sudo service nginx restart

Done!

Visit YOUR_SERVER for your first GitLab login. The setup has created an admin account for you. You can use it to log in:

admin@local.host5iveL!fe

Important Note:Please go over to your profile page and immediately chage the password, so nobody can access your GitLab by using this login information later on.

Enjoy!

Advanced Setup Tips

Custom Redis Connection

If you'd like Resque to connect to a Redis server on a non-standard port or on a different host, you can configure its connection string via the config/resque.yml file.

# exampleproduction: redis://redis.example.tld:6379

Custom SSH Connection

If you are running SSH on a non-standard port, you must change the gitlab user's SSH config.

# Add to /home/git/.ssh/confighost localhost          # Give your setup a name (here: override localhost)    user git            # Your remote git user    port 2222           # Your port number    hostname 127.0.0.1; # Your server name or IP

You also need to change the corresponding options (e.g. ssh_user, ssh_host, admin_uri) in the config\gitlab.yml file.
