Option 1: Adapt to the RHEL Environment (Immediate Fix) If you must use this specific runner, you need to use RHEL commands.

Replace your before_script with this:

YAML

before_script:

RHEL uses yum/dnf. We install 'make' and 'unzip' (needed for AWS CLI)

  • sudo yum install -y make unzip

AWS CLI v2 is rarely in default RHEL repos, so we install it manually

  • curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip" -o "awscliv2.zip"
  • unzip -q awscliv2.zip
  • sudo ./aws/install --update Note: This requires your runner user to have sudo permissions. If sudo fails, you will need to ask your administrator to install these tools on the server permanently.
