# Basic setup
The basic installation will provide you a GitLab setup with options:
1. ruby 1.9.3
2. mysql as main db
3. gitolite v3 fork by gitlab
4. nginx + unicorn
The installation consists of next steps:
1. Packages / dependencies
2. Ruby
3. Users
4. Gitolite
5. Mysql
6. GitLab.
7. Nginx
# 1. Packages / dependencies
*Keep in mind that `sudo` is not installed on Debian by default. You should install it as root:*
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get install sudo
Now install the required packages:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install -y wget curl gcc checkinstall libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libreadline6-dev libc6-dev libssl-dev libmysql++-dev make build-essential zlib1g-dev libicu-dev redis-server openssh-server git-core python-dev python-pip libyaml-dev postfix libpq-dev
sudo pip install pygments
# 2. Install Ruby
wget http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-p194.tar.gz
tar xfvz ruby-1.9.3-p194.tar.gz
cd ruby-1.9.3-p194
./configure
make
sudo make install
# 3. Users
Create user for git:
sudo adduser \
--system \
--shell /bin/sh \
--gecos 'git version control' \
--group \
--disabled-password \
--home /home/git \
git
Create user for GitLab:
# ubuntu/debian
sudo adduser --disabled-login --gecos 'gitlab system' gitlab
Add your users to groups:
sudo usermod -a -G git gitlab
sudo usermod -a -G gitlab git
Generate key:
sudo -H -u gitlab ssh-keygen -q -N '' -t rsa -f /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa
# 4. Gitolite
Clone GitLab's fork of the Gitolite source code:
sudo -H -u git git clone -b gl-v304 https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitolite.git /home/git/gitolite
Setup:
cd /home/git
sudo -u git -H mkdir bin
sudo -u git sh -c 'echo -e "PATH=\$PATH:/home/git/bin\nexport PATH" >> /home/git/.profile'
sudo -u git sh -c 'gitolite/install -ln /home/git/bin'
sudo cp /home/gitlab/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /home/git/gitlab.pub
sudo chmod 0444 /home/git/gitlab.pub
sudo -u git -H sh -c "PATH=/home/git/bin:$PATH; gitolite setup -pk /home/git/gitlab.pub"
Permissions:
sudo chmod -R g+rwX /home/git/repositories/
sudo chown -R git:git /home/git/repositories/
# clone admin repo to add localhost to known_hosts
# & be sure your user has access to gitolite
sudo -u gitlab -H git clone git@localhost:gitolite-admin.git /tmp/gitolite-admin
# if succeed you can remove it
sudo rm -rf /tmp/gitolite-admin
**IMPORTANT! If you can't clone `gitolite-admin` repository - DO NOT PROCEED WITH INSTALLATION**
Check the [Trouble Shooting Guide](https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-public-wiki/wiki/Trouble-Shooting-Guide)
and ensure you have followed all of the above steps carefully.
# 5. Mysql database
sudo apt-get install -y mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev
# Login to MySQL
$ mysql -u root -p
# Create the GitLab production database
mysql> CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `gitlabhq_production` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET `utf8` COLLATE `utf8_unicode_ci`;
# Create the MySQL User change $password to a real password
mysql> CREATE USER 'gitlab'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '$password';
# Grant proper permissions to the MySQL User
mysql> GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER ON `gitlabhq_production`.* TO 'gitlab'@'localhost';
# 6. GitLab
cd /home/gitlab
#### Get source code
# Get gitlab code. Use this for stable setup
sudo -H -u gitlab git clone -b stable https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq.git gitlab
# Skip this for stable setup.
# Master branch (recent changes, less stable)
sudo -H -u gitlab git clone -b master https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq.git gitlab
#### Copy configs
cd gitlab
# Rename config files
#
sudo -u gitlab cp config/gitlab.yml.example config/gitlab.yml
# Copy mysql db config
#
# make sure to update username/password in config/database.yml
#
sudo -u gitlab cp config/database.yml.mysql config/database.yml
# Copy unicorn config
#
sudo -u gitlab cp config/unicorn.rb.example config/unicorn.rb
#### Install gems
cd /home/gitlab/gitlab
sudo gem install charlock_holmes --version '0.6.8'
sudo gem install bundler
sudo -u gitlab -H bundle install --without development test sqlite postgres --deployment
#### Setup application
sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:setup RAILS_ENV=production
#### Setup GitLab hooks
sudo cp ./lib/hooks/post-receive /home/git/.gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive
sudo chown git:git /home/git/.gitolite/hooks/common/post-receive
#### Check application status
Checking status:
sudo -u gitlab bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production

If you got all YES - congratulations! You can run a GitLab app.
#### init script
Create init script in /etc/init.d/gitlab:
sudo wget https://raw.github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-recipes/master/init.d/gitlab -P /etc/init.d/
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/gitlab
GitLab autostart:
sudo update-rc.d gitlab defaults 21
#### Now you should start GitLab application:
sudo service gitlab start
# 7. Nginx
# Install first
sudo apt-get install nginx
# Add GitLab to nginx sites & change with your host specific settings
sudo wget https://raw.github.com/gitlabhq/gitlab-recipes/master/nginx/gitlab -P /etc/nginx/sites-available/
sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/gitlab
# Change **YOUR_SERVER_IP** and **YOUR_SERVER_FQDN**
# to the IP address and fully-qualified domain name
# of the host serving GitLab.
sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/gitlab
# Restart nginx:
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx restart
# Done! Visit YOUR_SERVER for gitlab instance
You can login via web using admin generated with setup:
admin@local.host
5iveL!fe

## Customizing Resque's 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 in the
**config/resque.yml** file:
production: redis.example.com:6379
**Ok - we have a working application now. **
**But keep going - there are some things that should be done **
