Hi,
I'm trying to install GitLab pointing to a Database in a different server than the one I want to have GitLab running on. Im getting the following error message when i execute the step /usr/bin/sudo -u gitlab -H /usr/bin/bundle install --deployment --without development test postgres aws : Mysql2::Error: Access denied for user 'gitlabuser'@'*Alice*' to database 'gitlab' The GitLab installation server is named Alice and the database server is named Bob running mysql. Alice --> GitLab install server Bob --> mysql DB server I tried configuring a host in the config/database.yml this way but is not working for me: production: adapter: mysql2 encoding: utf8 reconnect: false database: "gitlab" pool: 10 username: "gitlabuser" password: "mypassword" host: "*Bob*" # socket: /tmp/mysql.sock For some reason, GitLab is trying to connect to a database in the local server (Alice) instead of trying to connect to Bob as I'm specifying in the database.yml file And I'm able to connect without problem to the database from Alice, so it is not a problem in the configuration of the database at Bob: [osvie@Alice gitlab]$ mysql -h Bob -u gitlabuser -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor.
