At the time of this writing, the PECL binaries at http://pecl4win.php.net/ are NOT AVAILABLE. Specifically, the php_geoip.dll extension is not available in a pre-compiled form for Windoze PHP developers. There are only two alternative solutions to self-compiling for Windoze (AFAIK): 1) Use the "Pure" PHP version of the GeoIP API from MaxMind available here (http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/php/). This solution is not really acceptable for production machines because of its slower speed. However, it does work for development. 2) Use the older version of this pre-compiled extension (http://www.gknw.de/php/ext_win32/php-5.2.1_geoip-w32.zip). It worked on my development system using Windoze XP sp2, Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.2.10. There are also older versions for PHP 5.1.2 and PHP 5.1.4 in the same directory. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 66.169.200.63 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/geoip.setup.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/92221 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/92221 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/92221 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
