I want to upgrade Gitlab from version 8 to latest one. I have tried checking the upgrade path page. Still, it can only show black page. Can anyone tell me why?
If you try 8.11.11 the tool works fine: Upgrade Path
Anything older doesn’t seem to work.
Since the upgrade path from 8.11.11 suggests the next version as being 8.12.13 it would also be enough to assume the upgrade path would be:
8.10.13 → 8.11.11 → 8.12.13
which also would seem to be verified by the fact that when you look at the dropdown box, as shown in my screenshot:
Obviously make sure you have a backup/snapshot of the server in case something goes wrong. Once you are on 8.11.11 or higher, the upgrade path tool works fine, so you can follow the remainder of the upgrade path using the link I provided above.
I really appreciate your reply. Still, how do I upgrade from Gitlab 8.10.13 to 8.11.11?
If you looked at the link I provided with a working upgrade path it gave you examples that you could play with and change the version number:
yum install gitlab-ce-8.12.13
so adapt it:
yum install gitlab-ce-8.11.11
pretty simple. It’s just a case of reading and thinking a little bit.
