title: Bitnami GitLab 5.0 and git & Eclipse EGit quick start
body: <p>We have just set up <a href="http://gitlab.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">GitLab 5.0</a> using <a href="http://bitnami.com/stack/gitlab/virtual-machine" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Bitnami stack</a> and need quick start. </p>
  
  <p>By Bitnami default SSH is disabled. That is OK with me, I'd prefer use HTTP. But it seems that GitLab 5.0 doesn't smoothly support HTTP.<br>
  For example on project page <code>http://192.168.133.99/gitlab/publicproject1</code>, when switching to HTTP option, help below is not updated.</p>
  
  <p>I have one project <code>publicproject1</code> checked as public. But I can't clone it in any way (using <code>git</code> or EGit):</p>
  
  <pre><code>weibl@FX-JSJ532 ~/pp1
  $ git clone http://192.168.133.99/gitlab/publicproject1.git
  Cloning into 'publicproject1'...
  fatal: http://192.168.133.99/gitlab/publicproject1.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-s
  erver-info on the server?
  
  weibl@FX-JSJ532 ~/pp1
  $ git clone http://192.168.133.99/gitlab/publicproject1
  Cloning into 'publicproject1'...
  fatal: http://192.168.133.99/gitlab/publicproject1/info/refs not found: did you run git update-serve
  r-info on the server?

  <p>I have been using GitHub for a while, so maybe I missed something that is handle by GitHub automatically.</p>
  
  <p>I found this Q <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15128294/egit-plugin-for-eclipse">egit plugin for Eclipse</a> . My SSH keys are in place.</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE: I checked all advices on <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9343189/did-you-run-git-update-server-info-error-on-a-github-repository">&quot;did you run git update-server-info&quot; error on a Github repository</a>.<br>
  And checked that I am master of this project.</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE 2: Bitnami Gitlab doesn't have Nginx, but Apache <a href="http://bitnami.com/stack/gitlab/README.txt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://bitnami.com/stack/gitlab/README.txt</a></p>
  
  <p>Error is the same as <a href="https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/3384" rel="nofollow noreferrer">mentioned issue 3384</a>.</p>

  <p>UPDATE 3: passenger.conf</p>

  <p>How to make simple root (not relative root)?</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE 5: I have enabled SSH and change GitLab app URL from /gitlab to / aka root.
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15900937/bitnami-how-to-configure-gitlab-5-0-application-in-apache2-not-to-have-relative">Bitnami: How to configure GitLab 5.0 application in Apache2 not to have relative root?</a>
  However I still have the same error as in UPDATE 2 when accessing with git or EGit.
  The only clue I have, is that GitLab UI is corrupted (seems like no CSS applied),
  so maybe some additional configuration for GitLab application required. HELP!!</p>
  
  <p>SOLUTION was not found. I actually got newer VM version 5.1.0-2 with main bug mentioned here fixed, however there is general question now
