Gitlab ssl_certificate
Summary
I recently installed gitlab on debian, running an existing webserver with apache. Now I'm trying to make apache and nginx run alongside eachother. When starting the gitlab server with sudo gitlab-ctl start and tailing it, I'm getting this error:
nginx: [emerg] no "ssl_certificate" is defined for the "listen ... ssl" directive in /var/opt/gitlab/nginx/conf/gitlab-http.conf:34
/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
external_url "https://gitlab.domain.com:8090"
registry_external_url "https://registry.domain.com:8090"
nginx['redirect_http_to_https'] = true
nginx['listen_port'] = 8080
nginx['listen_https'] = 8090
nginx['redirect_http_to_https_port'] = 8090
nginx['ssl_certificate'] = "/etc/letsencrypt/live/gitlab.domain.com/fullchain.pem"
nginx['ssl_certificate_key'] = "/etc/letsencrypt/live/gitlab.domain.com/privkey.pem"
nginx['custom_gitlab_server_config'] = "location ^~ /.well-known { root /var/www/letsencrypt; }"
letsencrypt['enable'] = true
letsencrypt['contact_emails'] = ['email@email.com']
registry_nginx['redirect_http_to_https'] = true
mattermost_nginx['redirect_http_to_https'] = true
I have a domain that only supports Https, so I can't access the site without the ssl configuration.
Setting up gitlab I used this tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-gitlab-on-debian-9.
I added the allow rule through ufw for the ports 8080 and 8090, created the certificates using sudo certbot -d gitlab.domain.com.
Steps to reproduce
- Install apache2 and setup default http redirect to https
- Install gitlab through the tutorial
- Add config to
/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb - create certificates with
sudo certbot -d gitlab.domain.com --email email@email.com - Run
sudo gitlab-ctl stop && sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure && sudo gitlab-ctl start
What is the current bug behavior?
URL not accessible and nginx creating the error nginx: [emerg] no "ssl_certificate" is defined for the "listen ... ssl" directive in /var/opt/gitlab/nginx/conf/gitlab-http.conf:34
What is the expected correct behavior?
No errors and gitlab accessible through the gitlab.domain.com url
