Unable to install erlang 19 from epel. RHEL

Question

I am trying to install RabbitMQ which needs Erlang above 16. However when I try to install Erlang it installs 14B03 from epel repository.

When I manually download the RPM file and try to install it, it fails due to dependencies. Please suggest.

I am having RHEL 6.8 & Epel 6.8

You could try using `kerl` which builds from source. – juan.facorro Mar 01 '17 at 14:21 — juan.facorro, Mar 01 '17 at 14:21

You can purge erlang completely and install rpm version you need. If you don't want purge old version, check installing multiple versions
