               GeoIP install Manual on  CentOS/RedHat Enterprise
              

 

1)Install the base GeoIP and related libraries:

 

  yum install GeoIP GeoIP-devel GeoIP-data

 

2)Install the necessary stuff to install the module with APXS:

 

  yum install httpd-devel apr-devel

 

3)Download the mod_geoip source, and untar it:

 

  wget http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/mod_geoip2/mod_geoip2_1.2.5.tar.gz
  wget http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/c/GeoIP-1.4.6.tar.gz
 
  tar -xzvf mod_geoip2_1.2.5.tar.gz    -C  /usr/local/mod_geoip2_1.2.5
  tar -xzvf GeoIP-1.4.6.tar.gz       -C  /usr/local/GeoIP-1.4.6
  

4)Run the APXS install:

 

  apxs -i -a -L/usr/local/lib -I/usr/local/include -lGeoIP -c  /usr/local/mod_geoip2_1.2.5/mod_geoip.c
 
  This will generate a mod_geoip.so in /etc/httpd/modules, and add a line to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf:

 

                           LoadModule geoip_module  modules/mod_geoip.so

 

 make sure  the line 'LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so' line is uncommented.

 

5)modify /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

 

#below lines place after the line:  'LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so' .

GeoIPEnable On
GeoIPDBFile  /usr/local/GeoIP-1.4.6/data/GeoIP.dat
