Gitlab

Eyecu

Has anyone got a gitlab instance running on their openpanel server. I think my issue trying is just a configuration issue, I've tried with in a container but no luck yet. I'm wondering if maybe just running it from the docker version might be better, problem with gitlab is it comes with an embedded nginx so it's a pita figuring out the configuration.

Eyecu can be run as a docker container on same server as openpanel - but it wont be manageable from it in any way.

start this official image: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/install/docker/installation.html but use different ports: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/install/docker/configuration.html#expose-gitlab-on-different-ports
open those ports on firewall

I just tried it with:

docker run --detach \
  --hostname stefan.openpanel.org \
  --env GITLAB_OMNIBUS_CONFIG="external_url 'http://stefan.openpanel.org:8929'; gitlab_rails['gitlab_shell_ssh_port'] = 2424" \
  --publish 8929:8929 --publish 2424:22 \
  --name gitlab \
  --restart always \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/config:/etc/gitlab \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/logs:/var/log/gitlab \
  --volume $GITLAB_HOME/data:/var/opt/gitlab \
  --shm-size 256m \
  gitlab/gitlab-ee

and it took about 10min *(on 2cpu,8g ram VPS) to start, but is working on: http://stefan.openpanel.org:8929/

Please try that, hope that it will be suitable for your use case.

Thanks stefan, Ya guess I'll have to go that route, was hoping to do it from an open panel docker container. even thought of trying to do a custom image that didn't install a webserver/sql server but when choosing custom image it auto tries to install nginx and MySQL even though there is no selection for webserver/sql when setting up a custom image
My thought was if I could do that I could just run gitlab with the built in nginx and not have to worry about ports or proxying.
