The --init option will also upgrade an already existing site and
is processed in non-interactive (batch) mode.
This is a rework of the automatic schema upgrade feature that was
introduced with de980a4ddd and is
reverted with this change. Running init is more generic and also
supports initialization of a new site on daemon start.
Besides automatic upgrade, this feature also makes developers work
more comfortable as it can eliminate running init as a separate
step before running the daemon.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Runs the Gerrit network daemon on the local system, configured as
|
|
per the local copy of link:config-gerrit.html[gerrit.config].
|
|
|
|
The path to gerrit.config is read from the metadata database,
|
|
which requires that all slaves (and master) reading from the same
|
|
database must place gerrit.config at the same location on the local
|
|
filesystem. However, any option within gerrit.config, including
|
|
link:config-gerrit.html#gerrit.basePath[gerrit.basePath] may be set
|
|
to different values.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-d::
|
|
\--site-path::
|
|
Location of the gerrit.config file, and all other per-site
|
|
configuration data, supporting libraries and log files.
|
|
|
|
\--enable-httpd::
|
|
\--disable-httpd::
|
|
Enable (or disable) the internal HTTP daemon, answering
|
|
web requests. Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
\--enable-sshd::
|
|
\--disable-sshd::
|
|
Enable (or disable) the internal SSH daemon, answering SSH
|
|
clients and remotely executed commands. Enabled by default.
|
|
|
|
\--slave::
|
|
Run in slave mode, permitting only read operations
|
|
by clients. Commands which modify state such as
|
|
link:cmd-receive-pack.html[receive-pack] (creates new changes
|
|
or updates existing ones) or link:cmd-review.html[review]
|
|
(sets approve marks) are disabled.
|
|
+
|
|
This option automatically implies '\--disable-httpd \--enable-sshd'.
|
|
|
|
\--console-log::
|
|
Send log messages to the console, instead of to the standard
|
|
log file '$site_path/logs/error_log'.
|
|
|
|
\--headless::
|
|
Don't start the default Gerrit UI. May be useful when Gerrit is
|
|
run with an alternative UI.
|
|
|
|
\--init::
|
|
Run init before starting the daemon. This will create a new site or
|
|
upgrade an existing site.
|
|
|
|
CONTEXT
|
|
-------
|
|
This command can only be run on a server which has direct
|
|
connectivity to the metadata database, and local access to the
|
|
managed Git repositories.
|
|
|
|
LOGGING
|
|
-------
|
|
Error and warning messages from the server are automatically written
|
|
to the log file under '$site_path/logs/error_log'. This log file
|
|
is automatically rotated at 12:00 AM GMT each day, allowing an
|
|
external log cleaning service to clean up the prior logs.
|
|
|
|
KNOWN ISSUES
|
|
------------
|
|
Slave daemon caches can quickly become out of date when modifications
|
|
are made on the master. The following configuration is suggested in
|
|
a slave to reduce the maxAge for each cache entry, so that changes
|
|
are recognized in a reasonable period of time:
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
[cache "accounts"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "accounts_byemail"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "diff"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "groups"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "projects"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "sshkeys"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
and if LDAP support was enabled, also include:
|
|
----
|
|
[cache "ldap_groups"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
[cache "ldap_usernames"]
|
|
maxAge = 5 min
|
|
----
|
|
|
|
Automatic cache coherency between master and slave systems is
|
|
planned to be implemented in a future version.
