Edit Raw Blame History


From 6.1 to 6.2
You should update to 6.1 before installing 6.2 so all the necessary conversions are run.
0. Backup
It's useful to make a backup just in case things go south:
(With MySQL, this may require granting "LOCK TABLES" privileges to the GitLab user on the database version)


    cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production

  
1. Stop server

  
    sudo service gitlab stop

  
2. Get latest code

  
    cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H git fetch
sudo -u git -H git checkout 6-2-stable

  
3. Update gitlab-shell

  
    cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
sudo -u git -H git fetch
sudo -u git -H git checkout v1.7.1

  
4. Install libs, migrations, etc.

  
    cd /home/git/gitlab

# MySQL
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --deployment

#PostgreSQL
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --deployment


sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake migrate_iids RAILS_ENV=production
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean RAILS_ENV=production
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:precompile RAILS_ENV=production
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production

  
5. Update config files

Make /home/git/gitlab/config/gitlab.yml same as https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/6-2-stable/config/gitlab.yml.example but with your settings.
Make /home/git/gitlab/config/unicorn.rb same as https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/blob/6-2-stable/config/unicorn.rb.example but with your settings.
Copy rack attack middleware config
bash
sudo -u git -H cp config/initializers/rack_attack.rb.example config/initializers/rack_attack.rb

Uncomment config.middleware.use Rack::Attack in /home/git/gitlab/config/application.rb

6. Update Init script

  
    sudo rm /etc/init.d/gitlab
sudo curl --output /etc/init.d/gitlab https://raw.github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/6-2-stable/lib/support/init.d/gitlab
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/gitlab

  
7. Start application

  
    sudo service gitlab start
sudo service nginx restart

  
8. Check application status
Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:


    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production

  
To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check with:


    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production

  
If all items are green, then congratulations upgrade complete!
Things went south? Revert to previous version (6.1)
1. Revert the code to the previous version
Follow the <code>upgrade guide from 6.0 to 6.1</code>, except for the database migration 
(The backup is already migrated to the previous version)
2. Restore from the backup:

  
    cd /home/git/gitlab
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
