Gitlab: Not able to save the Gitlab admin settings after upgrading the gitlab from 16.7.5 to 16.8.2

I have upgraded the gitlab version from 16.7.5 to 16.8.2.

After upgradig the gitlab I am trying to change the gitlab admin setting as I am Administrator of my gitlab instance.But facing the below issue:

Application settings update failed.

The form contains the following errors:

  • Help page documentation base url is blocked: execution expired

  • Diagramsnet url is blocked: execution expired

  • Public runner releases url is blocked: execution expired

    Please find the below image for reference:

I also tried to change the settings by using root user, but facing the same issue.

Solution

  • I am able to resolve my issue.

    The solution is to run psql commands and directly change the boolean values for two of the properties. This is done via the gitlab-psql command.

    gitlab-psql

    update application_settings set diagramsnet_enabled=false;

    update application_settings set update_runner_versions_enabled=false;

    \q

    sudo gitlab-ctl restart

    Next delete the help page url manually from the application.
