GeoIP PECL extension installation with Poralix script

[Tristan]

Did anyone have any succes installing the GeoIP extension with the Poralix php-extension.sh script lately? Just tried on a Debian server with PHP 7.4 but it seems to fail with:

/usr/local/src/tmp.sMKtA74d5w/geoip-1.0.8/geoip.c:555:2: error: 'RETURN_STRING' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'ZEND_STR_STRING'?
  RETURN_STRING((char*)region_name, 1);
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have used the Script before but never installed geoip.

I have deb test server I can go try.

Yeah, that would be interesting to see whether you get the same error.

Nope even added

apt install libgeoip-dev

That version of geoip they stopped supporting. last update was https://pecl.php.net/package/geoip

1.0.8	stable	2011-10-23

GeoIP Legacy Databases

Develop applications using industry-leading IP intelligence and risk scoring.
