Can't get into GitLab application

Posted on June 12, 2018

This is my first DigitalOcean Droplet and the first time I’m playing around with cloud providers, so I am probably missing something obvious.

The webpage says: “Please log into your droplet via SSH to configure your Gitlab-CE installation.” Whilst I have successfully run the GitLab setup after SSH-ing in. Result:

You can access GitLab via:
    Web URL:  *OMITTED*
    User:     *OMITTED*
    Password: *OMITTED*

For more information about this 1-Click, see: http://do.co/gitlabapp

To enable LetsEncrypt TLS certificates, see: http://do.co/le-gitlab

Happy Coding!

External URL is set to droplet IP.

Am I missing a step?

Thank you!

Decided to destroy the one-click install droplet and just install GitLab on an Ubuntu droplet. Works like a charm now.
