Today I had this error on my Ubuntu Linux box
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare geoip_country_code_by_name()
The reason was that I have geoip extension enabled in my PHP configuration and also I used the geoip.inc file from maxmind.com.
The solution is very simple. Actually, there are two solutions:
First is to disable the geoip extension from your configuration. In /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/geoip.ini comment the first line:
;extension=geoip.so
The second solution: in your geoip.inc file, look for this code
function geoip_country_code_by_name($gi, $name) { ... } function geoip_country_name_by_name($gi, $name) { ... }
and replace with
if (!function_exists('geoip_country_code_by_name')) { function geoip_country_code_by_name($gi, $name) { ... } } if (!function_exists('geoip_country_name_by_name')) { function geoip_country_name_by_name($gi, $name) { ... } }
