This helped quite a bit; I keep forgetting that 1and1 defaults to php4 >.>

Anyway, I had to do things slightly differently, which isn’t had for someone familiar with makefiles to figure out, but perhaps this will help someone who isn’t:

*Don’t bother changing php-config to php-config5, just run ./configure like normal
*Your include directives line should look like this:
INCLUDES = -I/usr/include/php5 -I/usr/include/php5/main -I/usr/include/php5/TSRM -I/usr/include/php5/Zend
, instead of ‘-I/usr/local/include/php#-I/usr/include/php5′, as the original post says
*make test didn’t work for me
*Your .so and .la files end up in ./modules, so you’ll need to execute this:
cp uploadprogress.so ~/extensions/
, instead of ‘cp .libs/uploadprogress.so ~/extensions/’

As I said, these are things I had to do differently….not saying the original post is wrong, things may have just changed, or the account I’m working on may just be weird XD

It doesn’t matter where you upload the tar file. Just as long as the uploadprogress.so file is where it needs to be for the php.ini file to pick it up.

thanks for publishing this. I have created a few Drupal empoered sites most of which have been hosted with 1and1 and those hosting options already had this installed.

I have however now opted for a 1and1 managed linux server and this extension no longer exists so I can follow your instructions and install it myself.

My starting point though is where exactly do I download the tar to, which folder ? I’m noew with linux, relying on my unix memory from 20 years ago to fumble my way around lol.

Anyway, any pointers greatly apperciated.

Thanks,
Keith

and no .so file… so never mind I build without geoip…
