Release : 1.el6

This indicates that the package was built for el6 (meaning CentOS 6 or RHEL 6). If you are using this package on Amazon Linux 2, then EPEL7 has a much more up to date version (mod_authnz_external-3.3.3-3.el7 / https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mod_authnz_external ), and one that is built for something much closer to AL2.

Hi @stewartsmith , my apology. I was on a different EC2 instance when I listed out the package info and that has AL1 installed. Below is the info from AL2:
