I'd appreciate some help. I'm seeing an error during the installation procedure given here: https://about.gitlab.com/downloads/#ubuntu1404
This is a fresh Ubuntu LTS 14.04 install (amazon instance), with the latest version of the omnibus package (8.0.1-ce.1). After completing the package install with apt-get, running gitlab-ctl reconfigure fails at first, succeeding only when a second attempt is made, but trying to access the site after that point gives a 500 return code. The output of the failed reconfigure command is listed below.
