It's not relevant to geoip_country, but rather to the map{} block
before the map_hash_bucket_size directive. Something like
map $uri $foo {}
map_hash_bucket_size 4096;
is enough to trigger the error, as the map{} block requires some
hash bucket size to be set. And if it is not set when parsing a
map{} block, it is automatically configures bucket size to a
default value. An attempt to redefine bucket size later will
trigger the error, and this is what happens with the above
configuration.
The message is a bit misleading in this particular situation
as it is a generic one. Though the fact that the configuration is
rejected is correct: nginx can't use the value specified in the
map_hash_bucket_size directive, and hence it is expected to reject
the configuration.
An obvious solution would be to specify map_hash_bucket_size
before the map{} block, i.e.:
map_hash_bucket_size 4096;
map $uri $foo {}
