Copy the example GitLab config sudo -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 necessary

Make sure to change the location of the git binary sudo -u git -H vi config/gitlab.yml

Make sure GitLab can write to the log/ and tmp/ directories

  sudo chown -R git tmp/
  sudo chmod -R u+rwX  log/
  sudo chmod -R u+rwX  tmp/

Create directory for satellites

Some fixes for gitlab status checks

Note July 28, 2014: I don't know what this does..

  sudo chown -R git:git /home/git/repositories/

Link that we can access with python2

  sudo ln -s /opt/local/bin/python /opt/local/bin/python2

Check gitlab status

  sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
  sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
  
  sudo chmod u+rwx,g=rx,o-rwx /home/git/gitlab-satellites

Trying to start sidekiq (checked that redis server is running)

  sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake sidekiq:start RAILS_ENV=production

installing nginx

  pkgin -y in nginx

  mkdir -p /etc/nginx/sites-available
  sudo curl --output /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/7-0-stable/lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl
  sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/gitlab

START Note this is a cas setup for my requirements. It is not needed for general gitlabs.

Working CAS Configuration

Authentication via CAS isn't officially supported. You must satisfy the following requirements before this will work.

• Your CAS setup must be using CAS 2.0 protocol. omniauth-cas does not support SAML validation.
• Your CAS protocol must expose at a minimum: First name, Last name, UID, and email.

Install Process

• Add gem 'omniauth-cas' to Gemfile and do a bundle update (bundle install --without development test mysql --no-deployment --path vendor/bundle)

• Add CAS to the gitlab.yml with - { name: 'cas' } under providers:

• Add to the config/initializers/devise.rb file

  ```ruby
  config.omniauth :cas, url: 'https://sso.example.com/', disable_ssl_verification: false
  ```
  

END

• Restart GitLab

Note

chmod o-r keys

Make sure git is unlocked

  passwd -u git

Commands to start gitlabs manually
