how to start nginx-vts-exporter in gitlab9.4...

change server_name to localhost and retry 😄

After changing ip to localhost, here is what i get from gitlab-ctl:
[root@SZX1000347429 conf]# gitlab-ctl restart nginx
timeout: down: nginx: 1s, normally up, want up

I see that the installation for the nginx-modult-vts has

1.Clone the git repository.
shell> git clone git://github.com/vozlt/nginx-module-vts.git
2.Add the module to the build configuration by adding --add-module=/path/to/nginx-module-vts
3.Build the nginx binary.
4.Install the nginx binary.

So I wonder if it's that I don't add nginx-module-vts correctly to nginx in gitlab9.4 ? How to do it? Does it need to build and install nginx binary? Thanks so much!

Of course you should build a new nginx binary.
try nginx -V and you can see if this module is installed.
