Ok, I've been told this by my hosting service

I have raised this with our NOC team they have checked and it turns the module is trying to use mod_perl which is disabled on our servers because of the security risk it poses. That is why it was failing all along. Im afraid this will mean that it won't be possible to use this module on the cpanel, its rare that this happens but sadly the requirements can not be met to install this.

Looking around the best way to get around this would be to manually download the geoip.dat database (its in csv format) and then have your website manually look up to that (http://www.builderau.com.au/program/...9129583,00.htm). Basically it would consist of that database file and geoip.inc file that would need to be included in your php code, this then would allow you to do geoIP lookups. It can be obtained here http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecountry.

Is this possible?
