# From 8.7 to 8.8
|
||
|
|
||
|
Make sure you view this update guide from the tag (version) of GitLab you would
|
||
|
like to install. In most cases this should be the highest numbered production
|
||
|
tag (without rc in it). You can select the tag in the version dropdown at the
|
||
|
top left corner of GitLab (below the menu bar).
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the highest number stable branch is unclear please check the
|
||
|
[GitLab Blog](https://about.gitlab.com/blog/archives.html) for installation
|
||
|
guide links by version.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 1. Stop server
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo service gitlab stop
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 2. Backup
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
cd /home/git/gitlab
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 3. Get latest code
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git checkout -- db/schema.rb # local changes will be restored automatically
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
For GitLab Community Edition:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git checkout 8-8-stable
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
OR
|
||
|
|
||
|
For GitLab Enterprise Edition:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git checkout 8-8-stable-ee
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 4. Update gitlab-shell
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git fetch --all --tags
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git checkout v2.7.2
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 5. Update gitlab-workhorse
|
||
|
|
||
|
Install and compile gitlab-workhorse. This requires
|
||
|
[Go 1.5](https://golang.org/dl) which should already be on your system from
|
||
|
GitLab 8.1.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
cd /home/git/gitlab-workhorse
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git checkout v0.7.1
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H make
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 6. Install libs, migrations, etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
cd /home/git/gitlab
|
||
|
|
||
|
# MySQL installations (note: the line below states '--without postgres')
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without postgres development test --deployment
|
||
|
|
||
|
# PostgreSQL installations (note: the line below states '--without mysql')
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle install --without mysql development test --deployment
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Optional: clean up old gems
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle clean
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Run database migrations
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Clean up assets and cache
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean assets:precompile cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 7. Update configuration files
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Git configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
Disable `git gc --auto` because GitLab runs `git gc` for us already.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H git config --global gc.auto 0
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Nginx configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ensure you're still up-to-date with the latest NGINX configuration changes:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
# For HTTPS configurations
|
||
|
git diff origin/8-7-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl origin/8-8-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl
|
||
|
|
||
|
# For HTTP configurations
|
||
|
git diff origin/8-7-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab origin/8-8-stable:lib/support/nginx/gitlab
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you are using Apache instead of NGINX please see the updated [Apache templates].
|
||
|
Also note that because Apache does not support upstreams behind Unix sockets you
|
||
|
will need to let gitlab-workhorse listen on a TCP port. You can do this
|
||
|
via [/etc/default/gitlab].
|
||
|
|
||
|
[Apache templates]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-recipes/tree/master/web-server/apache
|
||
|
[/etc/default/gitlab]: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/8-8-stable/lib/support/init.d/gitlab.default.example#L37
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Init script
|
||
|
|
||
|
Ensure you're still up-to-date with the latest init script changes:
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 8. Start application
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo service gitlab start
|
||
|
sudo service nginx restart
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 9. 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:
|
||
|
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
|
||
|
|
||
|
If all items are green, then congratulations, the upgrade is complete!
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Things went south? Revert to previous version (8.6)
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
|
||
|
|
||
|
Follow the [upgrade guide from 8.6 to 8.7](8.6-to-8.7.md), except for the
|
||
|
database migration (the backup is already migrated to the previous version).
|
||
|
|
||
|
### 2. Restore from the backup
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
cd /home/git/gitlab
|
||
|
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you have more than one backup `*.tar` file(s) please add `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup` to the command above.
