Description
MaxMind is putting their GeoIP data download behind a login due to the CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act). See https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-using-geolite2-databases/
As a result, we need to update Settings > System > General > GeoIP Settings to change the instructions which currently show something like this:
GeoIP requires the GeoLite City binary database, which can be downloaded from https://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLite2-City.tar.gz. The file should be unzipped and uploaded to /home/blestacp/uploads/system/GeoLite2-City.mmdb
Not sure what we should say exactly, we should probably go through the steps and determine the best messaging. Their blog post shows the following summary:
- Sign up for a MaxMind account (no purchase required)
- Set your password and create a license key
- Setup your download mechanism by using our GeoIP Update program or creating a direct download script
But the last step doesn't seem specific enough for our use case. Customers must download the database and upload to Blesta.
