The <literal>gitlab</literal> service exposes only an Unix socket at

GitLab depends on both PostgreSQL and Redis and will automatically enable
|
|
both services. In the case of PostgreSQL, a database and a role will be
|
|
created.

If you're setting up a new GitLab instance, generate new
|
|
secrets. You for instance use <literal>tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 <
|
|
/dev/urandom | head -c 128 > /var/keys/gitlab/db</literal> to
|
|
generate a new db secret. Make sure the files can be read by, and
|
|
only by, the user specified by <link
|
|
linkend="opt-services.gitlab.user">services.gitlab.user</link>. GitLab
|
|
encrypts sensitive data stored in the database. If you're restoring
|
|
an existing GitLab instance, you must specify the secrets secret
|
|
from <literal>config/secrets.yml</literal> located in your GitLab
|
|
state folder.
