I am trying to install the epel-release package from the CentOS extras repository, but the repository seems to be empty. (I'm also pretty new to linux)

When I run yum repolist:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks

Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

When I run yum list extras:

yum list extras is actually a regular yum command. What you are looking for is probably repoquery -a --repoid=extras. The "repoquery" command is part of the "yum-utils" package.

Both commands produce no output for me. I think it's not a problem with yum, but somehow the system can't grab the list of packages.

epel.repo is also at EPEL https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL → → https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-9.noarch.rpm ... Besides that: The package is in extras/ too.

Install the downloaded epel.repo # cd Downloads/ && yum install epel-release-7-9.noarch.rpm

About the "yum repolist" : Don't know what the "extras/7/i386" is about. There aren't any: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.3.1611/ >>> http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7.3.1611/extras/ ... There are four .i686 packages. + 268 .noarch . And: Are you sure that extras is set to enabled=1 ? My yum repolist is this ( CentOS 7.3-1611 ) :

repo id                  repo name                                      status

!centos-sclo-rh/x86_64   CentOS-7 - SCLo rh                               5,174

!centos-sclo-sclo/x86_64 CentOS-7 - SCLo sclo                               403

!epel/x86_64             Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - x86_64  11,722

!extras/7/x86_64         CentOS-7 - Extras                                  380

Please see my edited post : A copy of CentOS-Base.repo was uploaded. .... I didn't know about any i686 version of CentOS 7.

Found the "CentOS 7 (AltArch)" : mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/i386 . Probably installed because your host OS is 32bits.
