GitLab

Created by: JamesStewy

Everytime I view a file in gitlab I get a 500 error:

In production.log I get this:

Application check returns no errors. I am running Ubuntu 13.04, gitlab 6.4.3 (last commit sha1: 38397dbe) and python 2.7.4. I have set gitlab's web server to run on port 8081 then used apache2's ProxyPass to access it. For good measure I have tried using gitlab in a web browser on my server at address 127.0.0.1:8081 (bypassing apache2 entirely) and got the same results; everything works except file viewing. This is the apache config in question anyway:

DocumentRoot /home/git/gitlab/public
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8081/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8081/

I know this is a well documented issue however, everything I have seen on this issue I have tried without success. Things I can remember trying:

• Making sure python is greater than version 2.5/2.6/2.7 (it changes in by solution) and less than version 3
• Removing charlock_holmes the nre installing gems
• Upgrading to latest version
• Making sure python2 alias works (i.e python2 --version works) There were also a lot of solutions involving the file lib/gitlab/git/repositories.rb (not 100% sure) but I have no folder git in lib/gitlab.

I have also noticed that pages such as help/api/README give 500 errors as well. I presume it is a reading off a file in this case while a page such as help/workflow isn't and is therefore working (to clear up help/workflow works and help/api/README does not).
