I've installed gitlab on Ubuntu 14.04, from the following deb file:
gitlab_6.9.2-omnibus-1_amd64.deb
It works beautifully. But I want to perform some maintenance on the box without gitlab running, and I can't find anyway to do this.
There is nothing in cron, nothing in /etc/init.d that I can see.
All the documentation points to /home/gitlab as the root folder, where in mine it's /var/opt/gitlab and some others.
I see it's running nginx, postgres & redis. I can kill the individual components, and hopefully that would be enough, but I'd rather it shutdown cleanly, or just not start. These components are not part of the /etc/init.d system …
Any ideas?
