Updating local continent database - 301 Moved Permanently

rjp2525 commented 6 years ago

Visiting the link used for updating the local continent data in the browser will download the country_continent.csv file, but running php artisan geoip:update leaves an empty array within continents.json in the app storage folder. Debugging and retrieving the output returns a 301 Moved Permanently response from maxmind:

[
    "<html><head><title>301 Moved Permanently<\/title><\/head>\r\n<body bgcolor=\"white\">\r\n<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently<\/h1><\/center>\r\n<hr><center>nginx<\/center>\r\n<\/body>\r\n<\/html>\r\n",
    {

    }

I was able to fix within a custom service by using file_get_contents rather than $this->client->get() and changing $lines = explode("\n", $data[0]); to $lines = explode("\n", $data);:

public function update()
{
    $data = file_get_contents('http://dev.maxmind.com/static/csv/codes/country_continent.csv');

    // Verify server response
    if ($this->client->getErrors() !== null) {
        throw new Exception($this->client->getErrors());
    }

    $lines = explode("\n", $data);

    array_shift($lines);

    ....
}
