hi, I’m trying to install gitlab on ubuntu 18.04 server running on vmware esxi 6.5.0u2 hp image.
when following trough the install docs this command:
sudo EXTERNAL_URL=“http://gitlab.example.com” apt-get install gitlab-ee -> giving errors
Running handlers:
There was an error running gitlab-ctl reconfigure:
