Can’t Open Unfound File: GPG key retrieval failed error

rhelrpmyum

I'm trying to install the anaconda package on a Linux box with the RHEL Server Release 7.2 Operating System with the command sudo yum install anaconda. It gives me the error: GPG key retrieval failed: [Errno 14] curl#37 - "Couldn't open file /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6.

I've tried solving the issue by using the command sudo yum install epel-release, but that doesn't fix the error. I believe the file rpm should look for when installing anaconda is /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-7 instead of RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-6 since I'm using RHEL 7 instead of RHEL 6.

What commands can I use so that I can install anaconda on my machine without errors?
