Not able to install GLPI agent in RHEL server

Hi,
I'm trying to install GLPI agent 1.6 in my RHEL Server 6.2. but i'm getting some error.
while installing i got this error

-bash-4.1# ./glpi-agent-1.6.1-linux-installer.pl
Installing glpi-agent v1.6.1...
Installing EPEL 6 repository...
Cannot open: https: //dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm. Skipping.
Error: Nothing to do
Can't install EPEL 6 repository:

I've downloaded the EPEL repo and installed it.

but still it didn't solve the problem. it just simply gave these output and ended.

]# ./glpi-agent-1.6.1-linux-installer.pl
Installing glpi-agent v1.6.1...
Failed to install glpi-agent

1. First of all, I want to know why it is failing and how can i resolve this issue.
2. where can i find the list of supported OS with version for GLPI agent installation.
3. I'm not able to see the any proper log while installing. i want to know the path for the installation logs.

Re: Not able to install GLPI agent in RHEL server

Which package manager do you have installed?
I think yum and dnf logs are both in /var/log.
The error you see should only show when the command to install the rpm via the package manager fails.

Re: Not able to install GLPI agent in RHEL server

The agent installer file i got from the GLPI-Project github release only for RHEL distributions i.e. "glpi-agent-1.6.1-linux-installer.pl" and the EPEL 6 package manager repo i've downloaded from fedoraproject.org only which was "epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm"

Earlier i thought it may be some internet access issue and for that i made sure it getting connected to fedoraproject for installation. logs are below

-bash-4.1# ./glpi-agent-1.6.1-linux-installer.pl

As you mentioned, the error will only shown when command for installation fails, so can you please share the proper steps or commands for installation.
Please let me know if any other package or dependencies should be installed before proceeding further.
