install apache module by script

I have a module that requires mod_substitute to be installed. The installer script does something along these lines (after checking if the module is already installed, and which version of Apache) . . . error checking etc., removed wget -N http://www-us.apache.org/dist/httpd/httpd-2.4.34.tar.gz tar zxf httpd-2.4.34.tar.gz cp httpd-2.4.34/modules/filters/mod_substitute.c /opt /usr/bin/apxs -cia httpd-2.4.34/modules/filters/mod_substitute.c
If I look at my EasyApache4 profile it does not indicate that mod_substitute is installed. My questions are: 1. If I were to enable it in the config and reprovision will that cause a problem? 2. Is there a way to install that i'm not aware of that would communicate with EA4 and "register" that the module was installed? Any ideas or documentation would be great, thank you.

  That seems promising, thanks. What do I need to check first. Should I query `yum list` to see what's available? What if the server isn't using EA4? Just trying to imagine the scenarios that might exist on a cPanel server. On my servers yum search substitute -q =========================================== N/S matched: substitute =========================================== ea-apache24-mod_substitute.x86_64 : Response body substitution module for the Apache HTTP Server
  what are the other possibilities?

  Hello @jimlongo, EasyApache 3 is quickly approaching end-of-life status. If you're server isn't using EasyApache 4, you should look into upgrading as soon as possible. You can read more about this at: Thus, the easier approach is to simply install the mod_substitute package that we already provide for use with EasyApache 4 by running the following command: yum install ea-apache24-mod_substitute
  Thank you.

  Thanks Michael. Is it possible to be using EA4 with apache22? Do I need to check for apache version and either use yum install ea-apache24-mod_substitute or yum install ea-apache22-mod_substitute

  Hello, No, EasyApache 4 only supports Apache version 2.4. Thank you.
