I built several VMs using CentOS 7 minimal and everything ISOs and none of them will install EPEL. When I do:
# yum --enablerepo=extras install epel-release
I get this:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Nothing to do
However, # yum repolist shows this:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
repo id repo name status
base/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Base 7,265
centosplus/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Plus 0
extras/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Extras 0
updates/7/i386 CentOS-7 - Updates 1,332
repolist: 8,597
These are clean installations with nothing else installed yet. Can someone explain why:
1. Why do Plus and Extras show status of 0?
2. Why won't Epel install?

Re: Can' Install EPEL in VirtualBox VMs
Looks like you have installed the 32-bit version (i386) of CentOS-7. EPEL provides x86_64 only.

Re: Can' Install EPEL in VirtualBox VMs
Holy cow that's embarrassing! I spent 2 hours trying to figure that out last night and I never noticed I grabbed the wrong ISO. I just rebuilt the VM and EPEL installed just fine.
Thanks!
Thanks!
