On a Redhat 9 FIPS machine I copy pasted the instructions exactly as they appeared for postgres 16, redhat 9, x86-64

sudo dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-9-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rp...
sudo dnf -qy module disable postgresql
sudo dnf install -y postgresql16-server

Upon executing the third instruction I got the 404 error.
The only thing that fixed it was removing the file part of the url in /etc/yum.repos.d/postgres.repo

baseurl = https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/common/redhat/rhel-9-x86_64/

believe me or not. It doesn't matter to me.

This is not surprising as you created an impossible problem and tried to find a solution for that.

Yeah, because it is a repo *RPM*.

I believe you messed up everything badly. Both that site and https://yum.postgresql.org/howto/ has the same instructions:

sudo dnf install -y https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/reporpms/EL-9-x86_64/pgdg-redhat-repo-latest.noarch.rp...
sudo dnf install postgresql16-server

This is all you need to do. What went wrong on your case?
