Hi @ddur,

Thank you for the info.

Unfortunately, I'm not ready to install additional modules for nginx because I usually use MAMP Pro which has a few built-in extra modules. But in the future, I'll try!

As you know, GeoIP Legacy databases stopped to update.

How about leev/ngx_http_geoip2_module? I think GeoLite2 databases can be used because they are based on GeoIP2 APIs.

Note for Mac users: Homebrew Nginx

Using latest Nginx-full package for Debian. Database is updated by https://packages.debian.org/stretch/geoip-database-contrib I guess package maintainers have taken care of old API.

By the way ... I installed Debian on all my old PCs and laptops. :) Much faster than MAMP/XAMP/VBox/Vagrant. VS Code uploads edited sources automatically via FTP.
