GitLab Installation in QA server Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS

1. Install and configure the necessary dependencies

If you install Postfix to send email please select 'Internet Site' during setup. Instead of using Postfix you can also use Sendmail or configure a custom SMTP server and configure it as an SMTP server.

sudo apt-get install curl openssh-server ca-certificates postfix

Select  Default settings

2. Add the GitLab package server and install the package

curl -sS https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash

sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce

If you are not comfortable installing the repository through a piped script, you can find the entire script here and select and download the package manually and install using

curl -LJO https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/packages/ubuntu/xenial/gitlab-ce-XXX.deb/download

dpkg -i gitlab-ce-XXX.deb

3. Configure and start GitLab

sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
