I am following https://www.postgresql.org/download/linux/redhat/ to install postgrsql 9.4 on Centos 7, using the command:

yum install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.4/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos94-9.4-3.noarch.rpm

This gives output:

Looks like you a version of postgresql already installed. Run "yum info postgresql" to verify. Then remove the current version before running the initial yum install command with the http link. You will in effect downgrade your currently installed version.

Did you update the cache with yum makecache fast ? Because on a clean system this makes postgres 9.4 available:

# yum install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.4/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos94-9.4-3.noarch.rpm
# yum makecache fast
...
pgdg94 | 4.1 kB 00:00
...
# yum -y list | sort > yl
# grep -i postgresql yl | grep -v base
...
# yum info postgresql94
...

(I keep a yl file around for easy grepping.)

First of all try to find what packages related to postgresql are installed. For this run below commands:

rpm -qa|grep postgres

Above command will give a list of installed packages.

Now remove each of the listed packages one by one by giving below command:

rpm -e <package-name>

 OR

yum remove <package-name>

After removing all the listed packages, try installing postgresql-9.4 the same way you were trying to install as mentioned in question.

Go to postgresql download site and select desired postgresql version and your distribution and architecture (In this case, 9.4, CentOS 7, and x86_64, respectively). Then a command appears you need to run to install postgresql94:

yum install https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.4/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos94-9.4-3.noarch.rpm

In the above statement, change install to reinstall and run it:

yum reinstall https://download.postgresql.org/pub/repos/yum/9.4/redhat/rhel-7-x86_64/pgdg-centos94-9.4-3.noarch.rpm

You will then be able to successfully run:
yum install postgresql94
