Problem to solve
I followed the recommended interim versions as recommended by the upgrade tool.
There are about 16-17 interim versions I have to reach.
When I reached 13.8.8, I started to have postgresql issue, googling for answers reveal some suggesting modifying the generated yml file but those yml are created by gitlab.rb which I attempt to modify but the error still show up in the *.rake file
Steps to reproduce
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
Configuration
Successfully upgraded from 12.9.2 to 13.1.11 now attempting 13.8.8
Versions
Please select whether options apply, and add the version information.
- Self-managed
Versions
- GitLab (Web:
/helpor self-managed system information):
Instead of navigating all these interim version issues with multiple components that needs to match along the way is it possible to
- Dump data from GitLab 12.9.2-ee (CentOS 7) to some shared directory
- Import the data into GitLab 16.10.x (Rocky Linux 9) from the shared directory
Thereby alleviating a need to jump through so many hoops ?
