Automatically update Geoblock files - #2663

Note to self: check connectivity before proceeding.

Tested and works, I'll merge this now!

Hi @enoch85,

sorry for coming back to you so late. I was very busy.

The reason why I did not implement it like this was this warning on https://www.miyuru.lk/geoiplegacy:

So I used Github as a relay basically.

Btw, yesterday was my server automatically updated and it ran into the following issue:

This lead to ipv4 connections not working correctly anymore.
So it seems like there is something wrong with your implementation.
Shall I open a bug report?

Valid point. I actually asked the owner of the website myself, and he's fine with it! :)

So the filename has to be GeoIP.dat? I find it strange that you can't set you own name in the config...

No, the problem is that the geoip file that is on my system does not match the apache config. Somehow this got messed up after your PR...

So, what's the output of:

ls -l /usr/share/GeoIP
cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

I posted the information in the screenshot above already...

Sorry...

I'll have another look and check if we can fix it, probably an easy fix. :)

Can you try to run this:

#!/bin/bash
source /var/scripts/fetch_lib.sh

# Get newest dat files for geoblock.sh
if grep -q "^#Geoip-block" /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
then
    if get_newest_dat_files
    then
        if grep -c GeoIP.dat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
        then
            if [ ! -f /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPv4.dat ]
            then
                if download_geoip_dat 4 v4
                then
                    sed -i "s|GeoIPDBFile /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat|GeoIPDBFile /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPv4.dat|g" /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
                fi
            fi
        fi
        check_command systemctl restart apache2
    fi
fi
