As seen in many tutorials and blogs, I've installed the EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux). I checked whether EPEL was enabled in my CentOS 6. After I tried with the command

sudo yum install ejabberd    
No Package ejabberd available 
Error: nothing to do.

This is what happens every time I try to install it. I tried downloading the package directly by using a Lynx browser and tried to run using the command

rpm -Uvh ejabberd-16.09-0.x86_64.rpm.gz 

It still says: It is not an rpm package

I am using CentOS 6 from a VPS at GoDaddy.

-Download the package directly from the process one website.

-Get the download link copy it to clipboard and use

wget https://www.process-one.net/downloads/ejabberd/16.09/ejabberd-16.09-0.x86_64.rpm    

This will download the ejabberd rpm package file. Then use this to install ejabberd.

rpm -Uvh ejabberd-16.09-0.x86_64.rpm

Check if it is succesfully installed using

yum info ejabberd

It will give the ejabberd version details if not install it again properly.
