### Error during GitLab configuration - "Connection failed. Please check your settings"
If you get this error message while configuring GitLab, the following are possible causes:
- GitLab is unable to reach your Jenkins instance at the address. If your GitLab instance is self-managed, try pinging the
Jenkins instance at the domain provided on the GitLab instance.

- The **Enable authentication for ‘/project’ end-point checkbox** is not selected in your [Jenkin's plugin configuration](#configure-the-jenkins-server).
