title: Ansible load epel and yum update
body: <p>trying to add epel and then do a yum update via ansible on a amazon-linux-2 server. The URL im using based on : <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-enable-epel/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-enable-epel/</a></p>
  
  <p>My ansible script is: </p>
  
  <pre><code>---
  - hosts: all
    remote_user: cloud_user
  
    tasks:
  
    - name: 01 add epel
      yum_repository:
        name: epel
        description: EPEL YUM repo
        baseurl: https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
      become: yes
  
    - name: 02 yum update 
      yum: name=* state=latest
      become: yes
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and my error is on task 02 is (task 01 has a "changed" notice): </p>
  
  <pre><code>     FAILED! =&gt; {"changed": false, "msg": "https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm/repodata/repomd.xml: 
  [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 404 - Not Found\nTrying other mirror.\n\n\n One of the configured repositories failed (EPEL YUM repo),\n and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only\n safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work \"fix\" this:\n\n     
  1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.\n\n     
  2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working\n        upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer\n        distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the\n        packages for the previous distribution release still work).\n\n     
  3. Run the command with the repository temporarily disabled\n            yum --disablerepo=epel ...\n\n     
  4. Disable the repository permanently, so yum won't use it by default. Yum\n        
  will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it\n        again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage:\n\n            
  yum-config-manager --disable epel\n        
  or\n            
  subscription-manager repos --disable=epel\n\n     
  5. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable.\n        Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,\n        
  so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much\n        
  slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice\n        
  compromise:\n\n            yum-config-manager --save --setopt=epel.skip_if_unavailable=true\n\nfailure: repodata/repomd.xml from epel:
   [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.\nhttps://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm/repodata/repomd.xml:

  <p>Any guidance,or help would be great.</p>
