bitnami gitlab 8.1.4-0 gitl clone via http error :empty repo and download zip via webpage error


gitlab version: bitnami gitlab-8.1.4_x64

os: ubuntu 12.04_x64

Just the title, I setup a repo on gitlab and push code via ssh is ok, but when i try to clone via http I get an empty repository. I have tried to add nginx item in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb but it didn't work. Anyone can give me some help? Thank you so much!

nginx['enabled'] = false
gitlab_git_http_server['listen_network'] = "tcp"
gitlab_git_http_server['listen_addr'] = "localhost:80"

At the same time, I will get following information if I try to download a zip from webpage.

{"RepoPath":"/opt/gitlab-8.1.4-0/apps/gitlab/repositories/wy/demo.git","ArchivePrefix":"demo-master-15fa55ea4cbd9a1368b2de6cda77b457e85f1573","ArchivePath":"/opt/gitlab-8.1.4-0/apps/gitlab/htdocs/tmp/repositories/demo.git/demo-master-15fa55ea4cbd9a1368b2de6cda77b457e85f1573.zip","CommitId":"15fa55ea4cbd9a1368b2de6cda77b457e85f1573"}

When using gitlab-ci-multi-runner I will get the proble with

gitlab-ci-multi-runner 0.6.0 (4d8b5c2)
Using Shell executor...

Solution

  • This is not your fault, it is a bug in Bitnami packaging. So far there is no official solution but you can implement some workarounds as seen here. You can go using SSH, but I would wait for a decent patch.

    Update:

    Bitnami now offers Gitlab 8.2.3-3. This solves the problems.
