Installing GitBlit GO as Service in Ubuntu Server 14.04
- by Luis Masuelli
I downloaded it (version 1.6.0), unpacked it in /opt/gitblit (ubuntu server 14.04.1), configured http to 8280 and disabled https assigning 0 (I expose it by https using nginx).
I created gitblit user and added it to 'sudo' group by running: sudo adduser gitblit sudo (gitblit user has a strong password).
I installed it as a service by running: /opt/gitblit/install-service-ubuntu.sh.
I tried to start it by running: sudo service gitblit start. The message Starting gitblit server appears. It's the only message.
When I hit -in the same local machine- http://127.0.0.1:8280, the connection could not be made. When I run sudo netstat -anp | grep 8280, nothing appears.
I see no error messages, but the server is not starting.
Question: What am I missing?
