How to install Gerrit2 on CentOS 7

December 9, 2022November 24, 2014 by Jeff Wilson

How to install Gerrit2 on CentOS 7. Gerrit is a web based code review application which uses the Git version control system. Gerrit makes code review easier by generating the code changes in a side-by-side preview, allowing inline comments that can be added by a reviewer. Gerrit allows any authorized user to submit changes to the master Git repository, which simplifies the process when an approved change has to be merged in manually by the project maintainer.

System requirements?

A Linux VPS hosting
JAVA JDK higher than 1.7
Database Server
Web Server
GIT
CentOS 7 OS

1. UPDATE SYSTEM

First thing to do, is to SSH to your server, initiate a screen session and make sure your CentOS 7 VPS is fully up-to-date by running:

## screen -U -S gerrit-screen
## yum update

install git and vim

## yum install git vim

2. INSTALL JAVA

Next, JAVA is required for Gerrit installation, and you can download the latest version of JAVA easily. At the time of writing this article the latest version of JAVA is 8u25 and can be downloaded and installed using the following commands:

for 64-bit systems:

## wget --no-cookies \
--no-check-certificate \
--header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" \
"http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u25-b17/jdk-8u25-linux-x64.rpm" \
-O /opt/jdk-8-linux-x64.rpm

for 32-bit systems:

## wget --no-cookies \
--no-check-certificate \
--header "Cookie: oraclelicense=accept-securebackup-cookie" \
"http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/8u25-b17/jdk-8u25-linux-i586.rpm" \
-O /opt/jdk-8-linux-i586.rpm

once the JAVA package has been downloaded, install it using yum as follows:

for 32bit systems use:

## yum install /opt/jdk-8-linux-i586.rpm

for 64bit systems use:

## yum install /opt/jdk-8-linux-x64.rpm

configure the JAVA package using alternatives as in:

## JDK_DIRS=($(ls -d /usr/java/jdk*))
## JDK_VER=${JDK_DIRS[@]:(-1)}

## alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/jre/bin/java 20000
## alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/bin/jar 20000
## alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/bin/javac 20000
## alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/jre/bin/javaws 20000
## alternatives --set java /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/jre/bin/java
## alternatives --set javaws /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/jre/bin/javaws
## alternatives --set javac /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/bin/javac
## alternatives --set jar /usr/java/"${JDK_VER##*/}"/bin/jar

check the JAVA version running on your system:

## java -version

3. INSTALL MARIADB (MYSQL)

Install MariaDB, the default databases server in CentOS 7 which is a drop-in-replacement for MySQL using yum:

## yum install mariadb mariadb-server mysql

Once installed, edit its server configuration file in /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf and add the following:

## vim /etc/my.cnf.d/server.cnf

[mysqld]
#log-bin=mysql-bin
#binlog_format=mixed
bind-address = 127.0.0.1

Start and add MariaDB to your system’s startup using systemctl:

## systemctl restart mariadb
## systemctl status mariadb
## systemctl enable mariadb

Optionally but recommended, run mysql_secure_installation to finialize MariaDB setup:

## mysql_secure_installation

Enter current password for root (enter for none): ENTER
Set root password? [Y/n] Y
Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] Y
Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] Y
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] Y
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] Y

4. INSTALL GERRIT

Create a database

You have to create a user and database and grant privileges on the database to the newly created user. You can achieve this using the following commands:

## mysql -u root -p

MariaDB> create database gerritdb;
MariaDB> grant all on gerritdb.* to gerrit@localhost identified by 'secret';

Initialize the Site

Gerrit stores configuration files, the server’s SSH keys and the managed Git repositories under a local directory. It’s recommended to run Gerrit Code Review as a separate user account on the system, so let’s first create a new user and login with the newly created user:

## useradd -m gerrit2
## su - gerrit2

Download gerrit

You can download gerrit using the command below:

## wget https://gerrit-releases.storage.googleapis.com/gerrit-2.9.1.war -O /home/gerrit2/gerrit.war

once the gerrit2 war file has been downloaded and you’re logged in as gerrit2, run the following command to initialize a new site directory:

## java -jar gerrit.war init -d /home/gerrit2/review_site

fill the questions asked by the wizard, for example:

Location of Git repositories   [git]: 
Database server type           [mysql]: 
Server hostname                [localhost]: 
Server port                    [(mysql default)]: 
Database name                  [gerritdb]: 
Database username              [gerrit]: 
Change gerrit's password       [y/N]? n 
Type                           [LUCENE/?]: 
Authentication method          [HTTP/?]: 
Get username from custom HTTP header [y/N]?  
SSO logout URL                 :

SMTP server hostname           [localhost]: 
SMTP server port               [(default)]: 
SMTP encryption                [NONE/?]: 
SMTP username                  : 
Run as                         [gerrit2]: 
Java runtime                   [/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_25/jre]:

Install plugin reviewnotes version v2.9.1 [y/N]? 
Install plugin singleusergroup version v2.9.1 [y/N]? 

Initialized /home/gerrit2/review_site

next, run the following command to rebuilt the gerrit index:

## java -jar gerrit.war reindex -d /home/gerrit2/review_site

and start the gerrit using the command below:

## /home/gerrit2/review_site/bin/gerrit.sh start

exit to root by executing the exit command.

5. INSTALL APACHE

Install Apache using yum:

## yum install httpd httpd-tools openssl mod_ssl

Add the following to /etc/httpd/conf.d/options.conf

## vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/options.conf

TraceEnable off

## Disable Signature
ServerSignature Off

## Disable Banner
ServerTokens Prod

## vim /etc/httpd/conf.d/vhosts.conf

# Load my vhosts
IncludeOptional vhosts.d/*.conf

## mkdir /etc/httpd/vhosts.d

Restart Apache and add it to automatically start on your system start-up using:

## systemctl restart httpd
## systemctl status httpd
## systemctl enable httpd

6. APACHE PROXY TO GERRIT

## vim /etc/httpd/vhosts.d/gerrit.conf

<VirtualHost your_ip_address:80>
    ServerName your_hostname

    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyVia Off
    ProxyPreserveHost On

    <Proxy *>
		Order deny,allow
		Allow from all
    </Proxy>

    <Location /gerrit/login/>
		AuthType Basic
		AuthName "Gerrit Code Review"
		Require valid-user
		AuthUserFile '/etc/httpd/gerrit.htpasswd'
    </Location>

    AllowEncodedSlashes On
    ProxyPass /gerrit/ http://your_ip_address:8081/gerrit/
</VirtualHost>

create user using htpasswd

## htpasswd -c /etc/httpd/gerrit.htpasswd admin
New password: 
Re-type new password: 
Adding password for user admin

restart apache using

## systemctl restart httpd

next, navigate to http://your_hostname/gerrit/ and you should get the Gerrit review application loaded in your browser.

What’s Next?

  I had problems with SE Linux stopping the mod_proxy from connecting to the gerrit server:
  /usr/sbin/setsebool httpd_can_network_connect 1
  (adding -P makes it permanent)

This does not work with the current implementation as reindex fails consistently.
