Initial start of the service

To start working directly with the application, all you need to do is visit the IP address assigned to your virtual machine in your browser to access your new GitLab.

Note: By default, GitLab can be accessed directly by IP address. To start using GitLab with your real domain, you first need to point the domain in question to your IP address and change the settings for where GitLab opens from through its admin panel.

Quick settings and frequently asked questions

  • Logging into the cloud service is done using an SSH key or password that you have specified.
  • Please note that since GitLab is installed immediately after the first start of the cloud service, it may take some time before it is ready. You can check this in several ways: 1. Via the gitlab-ctl status command which should show that all services are in "run" status. 2. When you visit the address http:// where is the corresponding IP address of your cloud service.
  • The initial login details are: User: root, Password: you can find it in the file /etc/gitlab/initial_root_password.

Update the GitLab access address

  1. Open the configuration file /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb.
  2. Find the external_url setting and set the address you want your GitLab to be accessed from, for example external_url 'https://example.com'. Please note that your domain must point to the corresponding address of your cloud service, so that your GitLab can be accessed via this address later.
  3. Run the command gitlab-ctl reconfigure.
