Re: weakforced and GeoIP lookups

Hi Neil

sleep solves problems :-)

Found that I should install geoip-devel from stock repositories (version 1.5) as well. After that configure found geoip and enabled it. After starting wforce it showed that the database is loaded

Opened MMDB database /usr/local/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb (type: GeoLite2-Country version: 2.0)

Cheers

Hi Tobi,

it should just work, but depends on the OS version.

./configure —help tells you all the configure options, including:

--with-maxminddb-includedir path to maxminddb include directory [default=auto] --with-maxminddb-libdir path to maxminddb library directory [default=auto]

Hi Neil

according to yum list installed I have

libmaxminddb-devel.x86_64             1.2.0-1.el7              @epel

but I checked the saved output from my former ./configure command and found

checking for GEOIP... no

but even running a new autoreconf -i and ./configure after a make clean it still shows that GEOIP is not found.

Does the lib has to explicitly specified as argument like

...

--with-maxminddb-libdir

to configure?

Hi Tobi,

This looks like you haven’t included the libmaxmind libraries before running configure. GeoIP support is only compiled in if it finds the right libs.

This would be libmaxminddb-dev on Ubuntu for example.

Hi list

hope it's okay to ask weakforced questions here as well, but I could not find a dedicated mailinglist for wforce.

I want to enable GeoIP lookups in my wforce daemon. In a first step I installed luarocks and lua-compat53 to install mmdblua module. Then I added

newGeoIP2DB("country", "/usr/local/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb") local mygeodb = getGeoIP2DB("country") if(mygeodb:lookupCountry(lt.remote) == 'XX') then return -1, "country blocked", "country blocked", { country="XX" } end

to wforce.conf and tried to restart wforce but that ends up in a

...

Fatal Lua error: [string "chunk"]:28: attempt to call global 'newGeoIP2DB' (a nil value)

Any ideas what I could be missing here?

Cheers
