Used in Sources\Profile-View.php(2186): 'url' => 'https://www.afrinic.net/cgi-bin/whois?searchtext=' . $context['ip'],

The new url is https://www.afrinic.net/whois?searchtext=

I knew that, was testing to see if you noticed ;)

I added an African IP but no results are shows, although not a blank page. https://www.afrinic.net/whois?searchtext=41.66.128.0

It looks like they don't allow direct querying of the database via a URL anymore, or if they do I haven't figured out what the proper URL is.

lesmonds commented 5 years ago

I agree I have been try to find the URL, will post here if I do.

frandominguezl commented 5 years ago

I wasn't able to find any URL despite my efforts. Any suggestions on this one?

jdarwood007 commented 4 years ago

Real URL is here: https://www.afrinic.net/whois-web/public/ Looks like it wants a post versus get. We could convert that hyperlink into a psuedo form and submit it. Unless they are blocking that as well.

Anyone try contacting them for more information?
