Installation is too minimal.
The X-Display server is not running.

Which version of redhat? 6, 7 or 8?

Note that unless you have a redhat subscription, some packages will be blocked, and you cannot download them. If this is the case, you will probably want to install CentOS or Fedora.

You will need to do either

yum group install "Server with GUI"

or if using redhat 8

dnf group install "Server with GUI"

When this finishes you need to do this...

systemctl set-default graphical.target

then reboot.

gvim and gedit are graphical programs that require a graphical environment to run in.

If you just want to use CLI editing tools,
I would recommend vi, vim, pico, or emacs.

Some of these have a steep learning curve unless you are already familiar with them.
