I can't get the GeoIP PHP extension working on CentOS 7 and PHP 5.5.21.
I first started with yum install php-pecl-geoip
and restarted httpd. I then did a simple test:
$record = geoip_record_by_name($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]);
if ($record) {
print_r($record);
}
I got an error 500, and in the error log, I see
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function geoip_record_by_name()
So I figured the yum package was bad and removed it. I then did pecl install geoip
and enabled the extension /etc/php.d/geoip.ini
with extension=geoip.so
and restarted httpd. Same error - undefined function.
To make sure the install was correct, I tried the pecl install again and received this output:
pecl/geoip is already installed and is the same as the released version 1.0.8
I do have Apache's mod_geoip installed. Do the 2 conflict with each other?
What else can I check?
