I think it is telling you literally what is wrong. It is trying to install a package named: https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm which it isn't finding in any of the yum repositories it knows about. I think you need to do this in a two stage process. 1) Download the file from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm 2) Then install the file. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
