At a fresh new Hetzner VPS under Debian I get:

Mar 05 17:11:27.000 [warn] Failed to open GEOIP file /usr/share/tor/geoip.
Mar 05 17:11:27.000 [warn] We've been configured to see which countries can access us as a bridge, and we need GEOIP information to tell which countries clients are in.

Hi @toralf ! I am unable to reproduce the issue. Could you please retry and if you encounter the issue again, what version of Debian are you using? :pray:

This is a Debian bullseye (VPS at Hetzner)

Linux kasimir 5.10.0-10-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.10.84-1 (2021-12-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux

and the geo-ip data are not there:

# ls -l /usr/share/tor/
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 351 Feb 27 13:21 tor-service-defaults-torrc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 431 Feb 27 13:21 tor-service-defaults-torrc-instances

I installed it now manually:

# apt install tor-geoipdb

Thanks @toralf - Could you please try again on a fresh install? Adding the dependency package should do the trick, let's see.
