Resolved Piwik Geoip Configuration

[Kingsley]

Hello;

I need help with setting up the geoip location for my piwik analytics. i have added the below

geoip.custom_directory = /var/www/vhosts/kraftysprouts.com/analytics.kraftysprouts.com/piwik/misc

to

/opt/plesk/php/7.0/etc/php.d/geoip.ini

now the site won't open, it generates HTTP ERROR 500

Thanks for your help

Same thing issue. the problem is caused by piwik because i was using https://github.com/Zakay/geoip

I instead switched to PHP5.6 using this comment https://talk.plesk.com/threads/how-do-i-install-the-geoip.337520/#post-799378
