On *restart* nginx will refuse to start with the above error 
message on terminal.  As you see this in error_log - probably you 
used *reload* instead (i.e. re-read config for an already running 
binary).  This error indicate that your loaded binary doesn't have 
geoip module compiled in.

Follow binary upgrade procedure to upgrade running binary to one 
you have on disk.  If you are using nginx from ports - just run
"/usr/local/etc/rc.d/nginx upgrade".  Or, if you don't care about 
several seconds of downtime, just restart nginx.
