[postgis-users] RHEL 6 PostGIS 9.4 cannot install

[Andrew Davis]

Good Morning, thanks for the input.

I was able to get the epel-release to install (Thanks again on that part..)

my 'yum install postgis2_94'  returns an error of

"Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repmond.xml) for prepository: epel.
Please verify its path and try again


my epel.repo
