Hi

I just update my server to php 5.6
But I'm unable to activate GeoIP

I read a lot of google page, but always nothing work.

When I send php -m, there is no geoip module


My installation :

Centos 6.8
php1_release=5.6
php1_mode=php-fpm
php2_release=5.3 (no more used)
php2_mode=php-fpm


My prefer method is to use $_SERVER['GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE'] as before.
But actually, I've an error if I had (in custom httpd conf)
Code:
GeoIPEnable On
GeoIPDBFile /usr/local/geoip/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat
Invalid command 'GeoIPEnable', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration


Thanks for your help.
I feel a little dubbious, with this simple problem !
 
thanks zEitEr

Code:
pecl install geoip
downloading geoip-1.0.8.tgz ...
Starting to download geoip-1.0.8.tgz (10,061 bytes)
.....done: 10,061 bytes

shtool at '/tmp/pear/temp/geoip/build/shtool' does not exist or is not executable.
Make sure that the file exists and is executable and then rerun this script.

ERROR: `phpize' failed

I suppose it's simple to solve, but...
 
PECL in certain cases might not work on DA servers:

- /tmp mounted with noexec
- Mulitple instances of PHP installed.

So use phpize instead with full paths:


Code:
cd <DIR>
/usr/local/php56/bin/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/usr/local/php56/bin/php-config
make && make install
 
And with the other method :


Code:
]# cd /usr/share/doc/php-pecl-geoip-1.0.8
# phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/local/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module


And the message does not help me
 
Thanks, but same problem

Code:
 /usr/local/php56/bin/phpize
Cannot find config.m4.
Make sure that you run '/usr/local/php56/bin/phpize' in the top level source directory of the module
 
Correct name for the PECL extension for PHP is geoip. You downloaded something else different.
 
Here is what I have on CentOS:

Code:
yum -y install GeoIP-devel

and general instructions:

Code:
export PHP_VER=56
export PECL_EXT=geoip
cd /usr/local/src
/usr/local/php${PHP_VER}/bin/pecl download ${PECL_EXT}
tar -zxvf ${PECL_EXT}-*.tgz && cd ${PECL_EXT}-*/
/usr/local/php${PHP_VER}/bin/phpize
./configure --with-php-config=/usr/local/php${PHP_VER}/bin/php-config
make && make install
echo "extension=${PECL_EXT}.so" >> /usr/local/php${PHP_VER}/lib/php.conf.d/90-custom.ini

You can try to change the tmp directory

Code:
mkdir /opt/tmp 
pecl config-set temp_dir /opt/tmp && pear config-set temp_dir /opt/tmp

pecl install geoip

Hi
For php 7.1, it doesn't work, because geoip 1.0.8 send errors.
I see it's ok with beta version 1.1.1.

So, I do replace your line
/usr/local/php${PHP_VER}/bin/pecl download ${PECL_EXT}
by
wget https://pecl.php.net/get/geoip-1.1.1.tgz


And it works perfectly ! Thanks a new time !

And for those searching long time.... do not forget to restart php71 (service httpd restart is not enough !!)
 
Hi

I've a new problem with PHP 7.3 and geoip

Libraries have been installed in:

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Don't forget to run 'make test'.

Do you have an idea ?
Thanks
 
Thanks zEitEr

It was : extension=geoip.so
I try with complete path, but same result.
 
I tried on my own and it succeeded.

What you get?

Code:
find /usr/local/php*/ -name geoip.so -exec ls -la {} \;

Code:
grep geoip.so /usr/local/php73/lib/php.ini
 
Hi zEitEr

Code:
# find /usr/local/php*/ -name geoip.so -exec ls -la {} \;
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 83608 Dec 11 23:51 /usr/local/php73/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20180731/geoip.so

Code:
# grep geoip.so /usr/local/php73/lib/php.conf.d/*.ini
/usr/local/php73/lib/php.conf.d/90-custom.ini:extension=geoip.so
 
The last grep command differs, please check it against /usr/local/php73/lib/php.ini

I wonder if you try to load geoip.so somewhere else.

And if you remove extension= with geoip.so from /usr/local/php73/lib/php.conf.d/90-custom.ini will you still have the error.
