I've tried to setup gitlab installed from current ArchLinux packages:

• gitlab 17.3.1-1
• gitlab-gitaly 17.3.1-1
• gitlab-shell 3:14.39.0-1

.. and configure it under relative_url. I followed ArchWiki instructions and then made changes described in relative_url instructions.

I've setup my first empty project and I was unable to push any commit via ssh or https. It always ends with unclear message "Internal API error (404)"

In my case I had to update /etc/gitlab-gitaly/config.toml:

relative_url_root = '/gitlab'

After restarting gitlab-gitaly service I was able to push my commits to empty repositories.

I suggest adding config.toml changes to relative_url instructions.
