An update on user1258056's post :

On recent releases of Gitlab (I'm using 10.0.3), the proposed solution leads to assets not being loaded (Error 401 : Not Authorized)

To fix this, add the following lines in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb :

unicorn['port'] = 8081
gitlab_workhorse['listen_addr'] ="127.0.0.1:8181"
gitlab_workhorse['listen_network'] = "tcp"

And change /etc/apache2/apache2.conf as follow :

ProxyPass         /gitlab/assets/ http://127.0.0.1:8181/gitlab/assets/
ProxyPassReverse  /gitlab/assets/ http://127.0.0.1:8181/gitlab/assets/

ProxyPass         /gitlab/ http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab/
ProxyPassReverse  /gitlab/ http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab/
ProxyPass         /gitlab http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab
ProxyPassReverse  /gitlab http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab

This leads to assets request being dispatched to the Workhorse component (port 8181), while other requests go through the usual path (port 8081)
