Bug reference:      17082
Logged by:          dawn rybchynski
Email address:      dawn_rybchynski@gov.nt.ca
PostgreSQL version: 12.5
Operating system:   RHEL 8
Description:

I am attempting to install a new instance of PostgreSQL on a new RHEL 8.4
server.
I am following the instructions on page
https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ .
Version: 12
Platform: Red Hat Enterprise,  ...
Architecture: x86_64

This is what happens when I try to run the first provided command:
$ sudo dnf install -y
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/12/redhat/rhel-8-x86_64/postgresql12-12.5-1PGDG.rhel8.x86_64.rpm
Updating Subscription Management repositories.
Install latest repo
                                                        107  B/s | 162  B

Errors during downloading metadata for repository
'pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm':
  - Status code: 404 for
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml
(IP: 147.75.85.69)
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo
'pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rpm': Cannot download repomd.xml: Cannot
download repodata/repomd.xml: All mirrors were tried

I have navigated to:
https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-8-x86_64/
in a Google Chrome browser and it is true, there is no directory called
"repodata" there. 

Thank you,
Dawn

FWIW, that page does not provide you that command. Not even the first,
nor even the n'th. You made that up.

Just follow the commands listed in
https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ before submitting any
actual report. There is zero change you 'll get this message unless you
are doing some manual stuff that you don't mention us here.


Thanks.
