In order to function Gitaly needs some additional configuration information. Below we assume you installed Gitaly in `/home/git/gitaly` and Gitlab-shell in `/home/git/gitlab-shell'.
```shell
echo '
[gitaly-ruby]
dir = "/home/git/gitaly/ruby"
[gitlab-shell]
dir = "/home/git/gitlab-shell"
' | sudo -u git tee -a /home/git/gitaly/config.toml
```
#### Check Gitaly configuration
Due to a bug in the `rake gitlab:gitaly:install` script your Gitaly
configuration file may contain syntax errors. The block name
`[[storages]]`, which may occur more than once in your `config.toml`
file, should be `[[storage]]` instead.
```shell
sudo -u git -H sed -i.pre-9.5 's/\[\[storages\]\]/[[storage]]/' /home/git/gitaly/config.toml
If you are using MySQL you need to grant the GitLab user the necessary
permissions on the database:
```bash
mysql -u root -p -e "GRANT TRIGGER ON \`gitlabhq_production\`.* TO 'git'@'localhost';"
```
If you use MySQL with replication, or just have MySQL configured with binary logging,
you will need to also run the following on all of your MySQL servers:
```bash
mysql -u root -p -e "SET GLOBAL log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1;"
```
You can make this setting permanent by adding it to your `my.cnf`:
```
log_bin_trust_function_creators=1
```
