I have a problem to install glibc.i686 package from RHEL 7 repository. I doesn't understand why only glibc.i686 package from RHEL 6 repository is avialable:

sudo yum list glibc*

In other servers (cloned VMs) I have no problem to install through yum -y glibc.i686 and the version was same as glibc.x86_64

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Also:

  • yum clean all I have already done. It didn't help.
  • cat /etc/redhat-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo)
  • repolist: *epel/x86_64 , pgdg95/7Server/x86_64, rhel-x86_64-server-6, vmware-tools

  • Could you provide: "cat /etc/redhat-release", "yum repolist", and also try "yum clean all" and then your "yum list" command? – shearn89 Aug 14 '17 at 09:37
  • - `yum clean all` I have already done. It didn't help. - `cat /etc/redhat-release` Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo) – bodo Aug 14 '17 at 09:42
  • - reposlist: `*epel/x86_64 , pgdg95/7Server/x86_64, rhel-x86_64-server-6, vmware-tools` – bodo Aug 14 '17 at 09:44
  • That's the problem, the RHEL7 repositories are not configured but the RHEL6 one is (`rhel-x86_64-server-6`). Is this attached to RHN? Have you checked what subscription and license it has? – shearn89 Aug 14 '17 at 09:47
  • I don't think so, this is from another server, almost same setup as the problematic ones (clone), -repolist `*epel/x86_64, rhel-x86_64-server-6, vmware-tools` But no issues with RHEL6/RHEL7 glibc. Correctly installed glibc.i686 from RHEL7 repository. – bodo Aug 14 '17 at 10:39
  • Repolist shows that it's configured to use the RHEL 6 repositories. You won't find RHEL 7 packages in RHEL 6 repositories. – shearn89 Aug 14 '17 at 12:30
  • Ok than how to configure RHEL 7 repository? I found couple of links how to configure local RHEL 7 repository (anyway I need a mirror for RHEL 7.2), but is there some *.repo file so than I can add repo through for example `yum-config-manager --add-repo http://www.example.com/example.repo` – bodo Aug 14 '17 at 13:00
