Well, it works for me:

What's your R session information? For what it's worth you shouldn't need libmaxminddb at all - try seeing if removing it and then reinstalling the R package helps? (it shouldn't make a difference but hey)
I've uninstalled libmaxmindb. I've reinstalled the rgeolocate package. Still doesn't run, unfortunately.

Error in maxmind_(ips, path.expand(file), fields) :
The geolocation database could not be opened

What does file.info for the mmdb file say?
And, do you get a different outcome if you use an absolute rather than relative path? (It shouldn't make a difference, but..)
And last but not least; what does path.expand("./data/Geo....") produce?
Wow. The absolute path worked and gives me results. It looks like something may be wrong with the relative path?
> path.expand("./data/GeoLite2-City.mmdb")
[1] "./data/GeoLite2-City.mmdb"
It looks like path.expand isn't actually showing the absolute path.
Aye, it looks like it shouldn't be! Let's see. Try installing via:
devtools::install_github("ironholds/rgeolocate")
And tell me if it works then (if so, I've fixed it - if not...I'm outta ideas)
It works! Using the "./data/GeoLite2-City.mmdb" file path instead of the full path gave me results.
That is, with the new version? And by that do you mean using the full path did not work?
Hello,
I'm finding an error when I'm trying to use one of the external .mmdb files. I have downloaded the GeoLite2-City. mmdb file from http://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/ . I've also installed libmaxminddb via homebrew. My terminal now says
Warning: libmaxminddb 1.2.1 is already installed
when I try to reinstall it. So I BELIEVE I have everything I need to use the .mmdb file.This code runs fine:
However, when I try this, I'm getting an error:
I know the GeoLite2-City.mmdb file is in the right place, as this runs fine:
I'm not sure what I may be doing wrong.
