Doctor Rake tasks (CORE ONLY)

This is a collection of tasks to help investigate and repair problems caused by data integrity issues.

Verify database values can be decrypted using the current secrets

Introduced in GitLab 13.1.

This task runs through all possible encrypted values in the database, verifying that they are decryptable using the current secrets file (gitlab-secrets.json).

Automatic resolution is not yet implemented. If you have values that cannot be decrypted, you can follow steps to reset them, see our docs on what to do when the secrets file is lost.

NOTE: Note: This can take a very long time, depending on the size of your database, as it checks all rows in all tables.

Verbose mode

To get more detailed information about which rows and columns can't be decrypted, you can pass a VERBOSE environment variable:

Omnibus Installation

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:doctor:secrets VERBOSE=1

Source Installation

bundle exec rake gitlab:doctor:secrets RAILS_ENV=production VERBOSE=1
