Are you sure that geoipupdate
is using the file that you downloaded? I would suggest testing this by explicitly specifying it, e.g., geoipupdate -f <path to file>
.
Looks like forcing the file with -f works. Strange because I put the file in /usr/local/etc as the instructions say.
How did you install geoipupdate
? If you installed the Debian package, that uses /etc/GeoIP.conf
. The instructions mentioned in the docs are for the tarball.
I installed the .deb with dpkg.
I am going to close this. I left this open for a doc update, but I see that we do mention the paths for the different installation methods.
When I run "sudo geoipupdate" I get hte error :
AccountID
option is required. Below is my AccountID line (I obfuscated the last 3 of the account ID. What could be causing issue? This is the preconfigured GeoIP.conf downloaded from my account.AccountID
is from your MaxMind account.AccountID 988***
