Unable to install fluent-plugin-geoip

[pun...@elantechnologies.com]

(Tried installing even after installing yum install GeoIP.x86_64 - but same error)

Error:

$  sudo /usr/lib64/fluent/ruby/bin/fluent-gem install fluent-plugin-geoip

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

ERROR:  Error installing fluent-plugin-geoip:

checking for GeoIP_record_by_ipnum() in -lGeoIP... no

you must have geoip c library installed!

Hi,

Did you install geoip-devel, not geoip?

I was able to make it work. Was also able to using both geoip and mongo plugin at the same time with following config.

<source>

  type tail

  format apache

  path /var/log/httpd-access.log

  tag geoip.apache

</source>

<match geoip.**>

type geoip

geoip_lookup_key     host

enable_key_city      city

enable_key_latitude  lat

enable_key_longitude lon

remove_tag_prefix    geoip.

add_tag_prefix       mongo.

flush_interval       5s

</match>

<match mongo.**>

        type mongo

        database apache

        collection access

        host localhost

        port 27017

        flush_interval 10s

</match>
