I have tried to install gitlab community edition following the instructions given on the website. First of all I used Ubuntu server 14.04 of 32 bit because I had 2 GB of RAM.

When I followed the instruction given below:

sudo apt-get install curl openssh-server ca-certificates postfix
curl -sS https://packages.gitlab.com/install/repositories/gitlab/gitlab-ce/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install gitlab-ce

I got the following output:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done 
E: Unable to locate package gitlab-ce

I checked that there isn't any package gitlab-ce in my repository:

$ apt-cache search gitlab
ruby-grack - Git Smart HTTP Server Rack implementation in Ruby/Rack
ruby-grit - Ruby Git bindings
ruby-omniauth-ldap - LDAP strategy for Ruby OmniAuth library

I have searched in the package cloud and I couldn't find a package of gitlab x86 for Ubuntu 14.04 trusty.

I considered alternative installation methods. but in this case I didn't see a way to do this.

I have considered downloading source code and compile it for 32-bit.
Is it the best way or are there other ways?

Edit

  • I don't think there are any breaking differences between 14.04 and 16.04, so you should be able to use the instructions in this DigitalOcean tutorial: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-gitlab-on-ubuntu-16-04 – blendenzo Dec 28 '16 at 01:51
  • Please edit your post to include the output of sudo apt-get update. – muru Dec 28 '16 at 01:57
  • @blendenzo If you read my question and see the first procedure is the same, that's work for 64 bit OS no for 32 bit. What I try to do is install gitlab in Ubuntu Server 32 bit – Cyberguille Dec 28 '16 at 14:29
  • Oh, 32-bit. https://about.gitlab.com/downloads/#ubuntu1404 says: "GitLab packages are built for 64bit systems. For 32bit OS, consider alternative installation methods." Anyway, you can install 64-bit Ubuntu on systems with 2 GB of RAM. Just install 64-bit Ubuntu. – muru Dec 28 '16 at 14:55
  • @muruI edited my question and I included the output of sudo apt-get update like you suggest me – Cyberguille Dec 28 '16 at 14:56
  • @muru I have tried to find an alternative installation methods in the suggested link , but I couldn't found a way and my team don't like the idea of install 64-bit Ubuntu on systems with 2 GB of RAM, Any other suggestion? – Cyberguille Dec 28 '16 at 15:35
  • @Cyberguille why not? Anyway, try installing from source: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/install/installation.md Also: from personal experience, Gitlab is a bit RAM heavy. 4 GB is a minimum, IMO. – muru Dec 28 '16 at 15:54
  • I know but I haven't other options right now and in other hand check this what are the differences between 32 bit and 64 bit and which should I choose – Cyberguille Dec 28 '16 at 16:40
  • @Cyberguille What are your team's reasons for not wanting to install 64-bit? Even on lower spec machines, 64-bit OS will give you better performance every time. Check these Phoronix benchmark results of 32-bit Ubuntu vs 64-bit Ubuntu on a machine with 1 GB of RAM: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_x86_1304&num=4 – blendenzo Dec 28 '16 at 20:06

    @Cyberguille Sorry, I missed your post right above mine. I read that link, and I understand why your team would interpret it that way, but it's not the full picture. How much RAM and swap is being consumed does not equate to performance. The Phoronix link I provided is looking at actual performance tests. Like many of the commenters on the thread you linked said: the performance gain is worth the extra RAM usage. – blendenzo Dec 28 '16 at 20:28
