This was a recent clean install from gitlab-14.4.2, but update fails again with the same issue as before: role 'git' does not exists.

Going to check this...

gitlab-update-config.service is not being started with gitlab.target.

From news read I understood that gitlab.target would bring all required services up.

sorry, it runned... gitlab-update-config is oneshot so in the end appears as inactive dead, but the logs shows that it synchronized the config.

Comment 5 Samuel Bernardo 2021-11-21 14:25:15 UTC

It seems that the issue was already in current install... Besides gitlab-puma.service appears with state active (running), looking to the logs it actually failed with same error:

 "message":"! Unable to load application: ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished: FATAL:  role \"git\" does not exist\n"}
/gems/activerecord-6.1.4.1/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/postgresql_adapter.rb:83:in `rescue in new_client': FATAL:  role "git" does not exist (ActiveRecord::Con

I reviewed what I have installed and realized that I have acct-user/git ebuild with gitlab use flag. Then there are other ebuild from gitlab overlay for setting up the group that are not installed (at least not a required dependency for current version):
acct-group/gitlab

My current installed ebuilds are:
acct-group/git
acct-user/git with gitlab use flag

Comment 6 Samuel Bernardo 2021-11-21 14:46:00 UTC

I'm now checking the dependencies and realized that acct-group/gitlab is a dependency of gitlab if pages use flag is enabled. Going to test with this option enabled.

I also did a complete emerge -cv after uninstalling gitlab this time.

Trying to set the configs for this new release (I could have some garbage from old gitlabhq).

Comment 7 Samuel Bernardo 2021-11-21 23:39:12 UTC

Using package on another machine, it also fails the update, so all scripts are also called on that case. gitlab ebuild seems to be working for both scenarios: compiling from source or using binary package.
I couldn't bypass that error of git account yet... Need to remove and install it again to keep going. Need to solve the issue later.
