Unable to download GeoLite2 database

Open marcoreni opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Docker build fails while running

$ curl --location --retry 3 --fail --remote-name https://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLite2-City.tar.gz

I'm guessing this is due to https://blog.maxmind.com/2019/12/18/significant-changes-to-accessing-and-using-geolite2-databases/

Any hints on how to solve?

I am facing the same issue, any hint to solve this?

one way to solve it is to 1) get a licence key 2) use it alongside the query. BUT read the blog and documentation carefully, since the EULA and terms have changed (AFAIK attribution is needed)
