Cannot create repository

Created by: compwright

My employer is setting up Gitlab 3.0 on a CentOS gitolite server, with Apache and passenger.

Gitlab seems to be running fine, albeit a bit slow, except for the fact that I cannot create a new repository. I get this error:

We have checked the permissions and ran bundle exec rake gitlab:app:status RAILS_ENV=production, which reports no errors.

We've made sure the apache user has the proper ssh keys so that it can access gitolite, and have looked at the troubleshooting guide. Google isn't helpful.

Can someone please provide some guidance as to what we should do to track down the cause of this error?
