Upgrade from 4.1 to 7.14

Hello,

I have cloned our git lab server (Ubuntu 12.04) and started the upgrade process from 4.1 to 7.14. At which time I had planned to do a backup and restore to a new Ubuntu server running 14.04. Everything was going fine until I started the upgrade from 6.0 to 7.14.

When I attempt to fetch the new code, I got this:

sudo -u git -H git fetch --all

/home/git/gitlab# sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
Fetching origin
error: Couldn’t resolve host ‘github.com’ while accessing https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq.git/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
fatal: HTTP request failed
error: Could not fetch origin
Fetching self
Warning: Permanently added ‘gitlab’ (ECDSA) to the list of known hosts.
git@gitlab’s password:

I added a password for git user and get this:

fatal: ‘bds/gitlab.git’ does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
error: Could not fetch self


I also seem to be having issues after upgrading Ruby according to the guide in the Master Branch and as I am now getting this:

service gitlab restart
Starting the GitLab Unicorn web server…
bundler: command not found: unicorn_rails
Install missing gem executables with bundle install
Starting the GitLab Sidekiq event dispatcher…
Could not find i18n-0.6.1 in any of the sources
Run bundle install to install missing gems.

I tried this:

sudo -u git -H bundle install
Fetching source index from https://rubygems.org/
Could not fetch specs from https://rubygems.org/

As well as this:

sudo -u git -H bundle install --deployment --without development test postgres aws
Fetching source index from https://rubygems.org/
Could not fetch specs from https://rubygems.org/

Any help would be appreciated, though I’m starting to wonder if maybe a straight upgrade to 7.14 is not the best plan. Maybe I should consider upgrading to 6.0, then doing a backup and restore to version 6.0 on the new 14.04 server.

Thanks,
Nick
