GitLab

Created by: chrislapa

Hi,

I just updated our Bitnami Gitlab installation from v6.0.0 to v7.6.2. I did this by restoring a backup of our v6.0.0 stack to a newly installed v7.6.2 stack. I followed this (guide)[https://wiki.bitnami.com/Applications/BitNami_GitLab#How_to_upgrade_Gitlab.3f].

Its mostly worked. However when we try view some old merge requests Gitlab will fail to display with a 500 error.

I checked the production.log and its showing this error for one of the broken merge requests:

I've looked in the mysql database and I can see in the merge_requests table theres an entry with iid 99 with the correct title and other info. I'm happy to post more info, I'm just not sure what at this point in time :/

Thanks, Chris
