after update GeoIP Database from tools menu no detail view is possible
GeoIP.dat under /var/www/html/mailscanner/temp is
Code: Select all
<html>
<head><title>404 Not Found</title></head>
.....
</html>
/var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log says
Code: Select all
PHP Fatal error: GeoIP API: Error traversing database - perhaps it is corrupt? ....
to workaround, to be able to view detail, delete GeoIP.dat!
Any solution for this problem?

eFa v4 is the solution. It uses GeoIP2. I am working hard to get it ready.

I attached the GEOIP files. ( from Dec 17 2018). Since the files are to big to attach, I needed to compress the files a bit.
Code: Select all
export GZIP='--best'
tar -c -z -f geoip.tar.gz /root/backup/geoip
Result:
Code: Select all
[root@sansspam geoip]# ls -l
total 5492
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 1242574 Dec 17 14:33 GeoIP.dat
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1926651 Jan 15 09:06 geoip.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 2447543 Dec 17 14:33 GeoIPv6.dat
P.S.
Any new install or EFA - configure will have the same issue.
January 2, 2019 – The remaining GeoLite Legacy builds will be removed from our website. GeoLite Legacy database users will need to have switched to the GeoLite2 or commercial GeoIP databases and update their integrations.
Code: Select all
[root@sansspam ~]# ls -l /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLiteCountry.dat
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Apr 26 2018 /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLiteCountry.dat -> /var/www/html/mailscanner/temp/GeoIP.dat

And the file should be a link.
Code: Select all
[root@sansspam ~]# ls -l /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLiteCountry.dat
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Apr 26 2018 /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLiteCountry.dat -> /var/www/html/mailscanner/temp/GeoIP.dat
Thanks for the updated database henk! Curious, why does GeoLiteCountry.dat have to be a link? I just extracted your files to /var/www/html/mailscanner/temp/ and it seems to have worked - I can see all the additional details now

Only if you live in the Shire, have proof you are a genuine Hobbit and closely related to Bilbo or Frodo Baggins.
In rare occasions a specific ring will do. In all other cases you need a wizard.

Hi Bonnette,
As you have some funny antivirus protection
Log in to efa and exec:
Code: Select all
wget -O geoip.tar.gz https://forum.efa-project.org/download/file.php?id=418
To unpack the downloaded file:
Result:
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 1242574 Dec 17 2018 /root/backup/GeoIP.dat
-rw-r--r-- 1 apache apache 2447543 Dec 17 2018 /root/backup/GeoIPv6.dat
and copy the files to
