1 篇文章 0 订阅
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL),CentOS and Scientific Linux (SL). How do I enable it under CentOS 6 or RHLE 6 server?
  
  
  
  
  

You need to install the following rpms as per your Enterprise Linux version. Use the wget command to download rpm files

If you are running an CentOS6/EL6 version, enter:

$ cd /tmp
$ wget http://mirror-fpt-telecom.fpt.net/fedora/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

If you are running an CentOS5/EL5 version, enter:

$ cd /tmp
$ wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

If you are running an CentOS4/EL4 version, enter:

The following may not be supported:

$ cd /tmp
$ wget http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/4/i386/epel-release-4-10.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-4-10.noarch.rpm

Install epel*.rpm file using yum command

You can use the yum command instead of rpm command:

# yum install epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Sample outputs:
