How to Use GitLab Upgrade
1

Hi,

I just tried to update through apt-get which normally works fine on Ubuntu 14.04. Today I got the following error:

gitlab-ce (8.6.4-ce.0) wird eingerichtet ...
hostname: Name or service not known
gitlab: Thank you for installing GitLab!
gitlab: To configure and start GitLab, RUN THE FOLLOWING COMMAND:

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

gitlab: GitLab should be reachable at http://gitlab.server.net
gitlab: Otherwise configure GitLab for your system by editing /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb file
gitlab: And running reconfigure again.

How can I solve this?

Hi again,

I tried again today with sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure and got the same results:

root@(none):~# sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
sudo: unable to resolve host (none)

Since two days my GitLab is down and this has just happened by updating. It worked perfectly before this update.

Any idea?

Thanks,

Ralf

Ok, I solved it myself now:

root@(none):~# hostname localhost
root@(none):~# sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure

Thanks anyway!

Best regards,

Ralf
