Step 1a. If you have a rhel subscription subscribe to the base, optional and redhat software collection beta channel. You will also need the official nginx repository (http:\/\/wiki.nginx.org\/Install#Official_Red_Hat.2FCentOS_packages).<\/p>\n
Step 1. If your on Centos add the SCL repo to your Rhel\/Centos installation and bring in the official nginx repository (http:\/\/wiki.nginx.org\/Install#Official_Red_Hat.2FCentOS_packages ).<\/p>\n
# yum install -y centos-release-SCL\r\n<\/pre>\nMake sure you are also subscribed to the rhel6-server optional channel. Then install the Development tools<\/p>\n
# yum -y groupinstall 'Development Tools'\r\n\r\n### 'Additional Development'\r\n# yum -y install vim-enhanced readline readline-devel ncurses-devel gdbm-devel glibc-devel \\\r\n tcl-devel openssl-devel curl-devel expat-devel db4-devel byacc \\\r\n sqlite-devel gcc-c++ libyaml libyaml-devel libffi libffi-devel \\\r\n libxml2 libxml2-devel libxslt libxslt-devel libicu libicu-devel \\\r\n system-config-firewall-tui python-devel redis sudo mysql-server wget \\\r\n mysql-devel crontabs logwatch logrotate sendmail-cf qtwebkit qtwebkit-devel \\\r\n perl-Time-HiRes libicu-devel libxml2-devel libxslt-devel mysql-devel<\/pre>\nStep 2. As rhel\/centos still did not update the git version 1.7.1-3.el6_4.1 and we need at least 1.7.10 we also need to add the rpm forge package.<\/p>\n
# yum localinstall -y http:\/\/packages.sw.be\/rpmforge-release\/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm<\/pre>\nEnable the rpmforge extras<\/strong><\/p>\n
Step 3. Gitlab also needs redis which is available on epel.<\/p>\n
# yum localinstall -y http:\/\/dl.fedoraproject.org\/pub\/epel\/6\/x86_64\/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm<\/pre>\nStep 4. Lets install ruby193 and git httpd mysql-server and start all the servies<\/p>\n
# yum install -y ruby193 ruby193-ruby-devel ruby193-libyaml ruby193-libyaml-devel git redis nginx python-docutils mysql-server\r\n# service mysqld start \r\n# service redis start \r\n# service nginx start \r\n# chkconfig mysqld on\r\n# chkconfig redis on\r\n# chkconfig nginx on<\/pre>\nStep 5. Add the user git and set the git globals<\/p>\n
# adduser -r -s \/bin\/bash -c 'Gitlab user' -m -d \/home\/git git\r\n# chmod o+x \/home\/git\r\n# su - git\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ git config --global user.name \"GitLab\"\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ git config --global user.email \"gitlab@localhost\"\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ git config --global core.autocrlf input<\/pre>\nStep 6. su to the git user to clone the git repos<\/p>\n
# su - git\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ git clone https:\/\/github.com\/gitlabhq\/gitlab-shell.git\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ git clone https:\/\/github.com\/gitlabhq\/gitlabhq.git gitlab<\/pre>\nStep 7. Extend your .bashrc to have the following content which will load our scl environment for us when we login<\/p>\n
# .bashrc\r\n# Get the aliases and functions\r\nif [ -f ~\/.bashrc ]; then\r\n . ~\/.bashrc\r\nfi\r\n\r\nsource \/opt\/rh\/ruby193\/enable<\/pre>\nStep 8. Make sure the paths are right. You can test this by executing env.<\/p>\n
Step 9. Logout and login again as user gitlab. If everything went fine you should be able to do this<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab ~]$ which ruby\r\n\/opt\/rh\/ruby193\/root\/usr\/bin\/ruby\r\n[git@gitlab ~]$ ruby --version\r\nruby 1.9.3p327 (2012-11-10 revision 37606) [x86_64-linux]<\/pre>\nStep 10. As git cd into the git-shell dir and checkout version 1.7.1<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab ~]$ cd gitlab-shell\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab-shell]$ git checkout v1.7.1\r\nNote: checking out 'v1.7.1'.\r\n\r\nYou are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental\r\nchanges and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this\r\nstate without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.\r\n\r\nIf you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may\r\ndo so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:\r\n\r\n git checkout -b new_branch_name\r\n\r\nHEAD is now at 2c237b7... Fix tests and version up to 1.7.1\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab-shell]$<\/pre>\nStep 11. Copy the file config.yml.example to config.yml in the git-shell directory
\nStep 12. Install gitshell<\/p>\ngit@gitlab gitlab-shell]$ .\/bin\/install\r\nmkdir -p \/home\/git\/repositories: true\r\nmkdir -p \/home\/git\/.ssh: true\r\nchmod 700 \/home\/git\/.ssh: true\r\ntouch \/home\/git\/.ssh\/authorized_keys: true\r\nchmod 600 \/home\/git\/.ssh\/authorized_keys: true\r\nchmod -R ug+rwX,o-rwx \/home\/git\/repositories: true\r\nfind \/home\/git\/repositories -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod g+s: true<\/pre>\nStep 13. IMPORTANT. Do this still as the git user! checkout gitlab 6<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab ~]$ cd gitlab\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ ls\r\napp CONTRIBUTING.md Gemfile.lock MAINTENANCE.md script\r\nCapfile.example db Guardfile Procfile spec\r\nCHANGELOG doc lib public tmp\r\nconfig features LICENSE Rakefile vendor\r\nconfig.ru Gemfile log README.md VERSION\r\n\r\nIn the community edition\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ git checkout 6-0-stable \r\n\r\nBranch 6-0-stable set up to track remote branch 6-0-stable from origin.\r\nSwitched to a new branch '6-0-stable' or master<\/pre>\nStep 14. Lets configure Gitlab and install the gems.<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab gitlab]$ gem install bundler\r\nFetching: bundler-1.3.5.gem (100%)\r\nSuccessfully installed bundler-1.3.5\r\n1 gem installed\r\nInstalling ri documentation for bundler-1.3.5...\r\nInstalling RDoc documentation for bundler-1.3.5.\r\n\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ gem install json\r\n1 gem installed\r\nInstalling ri documentation for json-1.8.0...\r\nInstalling RDoc documentation for json-1.8.0...\r\n\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ gem install charlock_holmes --version '0.6.9.4'\r\nBuilding native extensions.

Configure Gitlab
\nCopy the example GitLab config and edit the necessary fields.<\/p>\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ cp \/home\/git\/gitlab\/config\/gitlab.yml{.example,}\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ sed -i 's\/localhost\/gitlab.local.domb.com\/g' \/home\/git\/gitlab\/config\/gitlab.yml\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chown -R git \/home\/git\/gitlab\/log\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chown -R git \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chmod -R u+rwX \/home\/git\/gitlab\/log\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chmod -R u+rwX \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mkdir \/home\/git\/gitlab-satellites\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mkdir \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/pids\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mkdir \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/sockets\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chmod -R u+rwX \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/pids\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chmod -R u+rwX \/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/sockets\/\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mkdir \/home\/git\/gitlab\/public\/uploads\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ chmod -R u+rwX \/home\/git\/gitlab\/public\/uploads<\/pre>\nStep 16. Copy the \/home\/git\/gitlab\/config\/unicorn.rb.example to \/home\/git\/gitlab\/config\/unicorn.rb and configure it. Uncomment lines<\/p>\n
72 old_pid = \"#{server.config[:pid]}.oldbin\"\r\n 73 if old_pid != server.pid\r\n 74 begin\r\n 75 sig = (worker.nr + 1) >= server.worker_processes ? :QUIT : :TTOU\r\n 76 Process.kill(sig, File.read(old_pid).to_i)\r\n 77 rescue Errno::ENOENT, Errno::ESRCH\r\n 78 end\r\n 79 end<\/pre>\nStep 17. Confugre Mysql and change the user and password in the database.yml file<\/p>\n
production:\r\n adapter: mysql2\r\n encoding: utf8\r\n reconnect: false\r\n database: gitlabhq_production\r\n pool: 5\r\n username: gitlab\r\n password: \"iloveopensource\"\r\n # host: localhost\r\n # socket: \/tmp\/mysql.sock<\/pre>\nStep 18. Create a Mysql User<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mysql -u root\r\n# Create a user for GitLab. (change supersecret to a real password)\r\nCREATE USER 'gitlab'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'iloveopensource';\r\n# Create the GitLab production database\r\nCREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS `gitlabhq_production` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET `utf8` COLLATE `utf8_unicode_ci`;\r\n# Grant the GitLab user necessary permissions on the table.\r\nGRANT SELECT, LOCK TABLES, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER ON `gitlabhq_production`.* TO 'gitlab'@'localhost';<\/pre>\nStep 19. Check if you can login as the gitlab user<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab gitlab]$ mysql -u gitlab -p -D gitlabhq_production<\/pre>\nStep 20. Secure MySQL by entering a root password and say “Yes” to all questions with the next command<\/p>\n
# \/usr\/bin\/mysql_secure_installation<\/pre>\nStep 21. Add this as your nginx config in \/etc\/nginx\/conf.d\/gitlab.conf<\/p>\n
\r\n\r\nupstream gitlab {\r\n server unix:\/home\/git\/gitlab\/tmp\/sockets\/gitlab.socket;\r\n}\r\n\r\nserver {\r\n listen *:80 default_server; # e.g., listen 192.168.1.1:80; In most cases *:80 is a good idea\r\n server_name gitlab.local.domb.com; # e.g., server_name source.example.com;\r\n server_tokens off; # don't show the version number, a security best practice\r\n root \/home\/git\/gitlab\/public;\r\n\r\n # individual nginx logs for this gitlab vhost\r\n access_log \/var\/log\/nginx\/gitlab_access.log;\r\n error_log \/var\/log\/nginx\/gitlab_error.log;\r\n\r\n location \/ {\r\n # serve static files from defined root folder;.\r\n # @gitlab is a named location for the upstream fallback, see below\r\n try_files $uri $uri\/index.html $uri.html @gitlab;\r\n }\r\n\r\n # if a file, which is not found in the root folder is requested,\r\n # then the proxy pass the request to the upsteam (gitlab unicorn)\r\n location @gitlab {\r\n proxy_read_timeout 300; # https:\/\/github.com\/gitlabhq\/gitlabhq\/issues\/694\r\n proxy_connect_timeout 300; # https:\/\/github.com\/gitlabhq\/gitlabhq\/issues\/694\r\n proxy_redirect off;\r\n\r\n proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;\r\n proxy_set_header Host $http_host;\r\n proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;\r\n\r\n proxy_pass http:\/\/gitlab;\r\n }\r\n}<\/pre>\nStep 22. From the gitlab dir execute if installing with mysql support<\/p>\n
[git@gitlab gitlab]$ bundle install --deployment --without development test postgres\r\n[git@gitlab gitlab]$ bundle exec rake gitlab:setup RAILS_ENV=production<\/pre>\nStep 23. If everything went fine you see:<\/p>\n
Administrator account created:\r\nlogin.........admin@local.host\r\npassword......5iveL!fe<\/pre>\nStep 24. As root Get the init script.<\/p>\n
# cp \/home\/git\/gitlab\/lib\/support\/init.d\/gitlab \/etc\/init.d\/gitlab\r\n# chmod +x \/etc\/init.d\/gitlab<\/pre>\nStep 25. If you want you can now configure the mail part. Open \/etc\/mail\/sendmail.mc and add or modify the following lines<\/p>\n
Add:\r\ndefine(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.example.com')dnl\r\nComment\r\ndnl EXPOSED_USER(`root')dnl<\/pre>\nStep 26. Restart sendmail<\/p>\n
Step 27. forward all email to a centrail mail address<\/p>\n
# echo adminlogs@example.com > \/root\/.forward\r\n# chown root \/root\/.forward\r\n# chmod 600 \/root\/.forward\r\n# echo adminlogs@example.com > \/home\/git\/.forward\r\n# chown git \/home\/git\/.forward\r\n# chmod 600 \/home\/git\/.forward<\/pre>\nStep 28. Your done. Start up your server<\/p>\n
