<p>You need to edit /etc/yum.repos.d/elrepo.repo and modify the
included URLs to make them point to an archive. They are no longer
valid since support for EL6 was retired . <br>
</p>
<p>You can read about that at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el6/000README.txt">https://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el6/000README.txt</a> as well.<br>

<p>Support for EL6 was retired after the distro was itself EOLed
but you can still find the packages in the elrepo archives<o:p></o:p></p>
