Error when using GeoIP
Hi I did compile 9.10 with --with-geoip , did the config as follows : In options geoip-directory "/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat"; in zones acl "US" { geoip country US; }; view "US" { match-clients { US; }; //Once I add this it throws the error below *** include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones"; include "/etc/dk.sites.list"; }; Once I add the match-clients line it throws the error below on starting : /etc/named.conf:47: no GeoIP database installed which can answer queries of type 'country' geoiplookup ip.ip.ip.ip works, so I doubt that is the issue, I did try geoip-directory "/usr/share/GeoIP"; instead of full path but that did not make any difference. Any hints ? ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users

Until then there is a patch: https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/bind-users/2014-May/093083.html The workaround is to put the geoip country directive in the match-clients clause itself rather than going via a named acl.

Re: Error when using GeoIP
Hi Tony I did try match-clients {geoip country US; }; but that yielded the same error. Which is weird, I did actually submit the bug with the above patch in RC2 and inline worked at the time . Will try the patch, let me know if you have input on the match-clients please. As I did already build the RPM to be deployed across my servers, and it will save me some time.

Look at logs please. Do you have an "initializing GeoIP Country" line? Like: 30-Apr-2014 22:11:17.908 initializing GeoIP Country (IPv4) (type 1) DB Double-check that /usr/share/GeoIP/ is correct and that you have the correct database(s) there.___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
Re: Error when using GeoIP
Hi Jeremy Thanks for chipping in. Usual as ever. So I did actually use geoip-directory "/usr/share/GeoIP"; and ls of that dir is [root@uk etc]# ls -lart /usr/share/GeoIP/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1206078 Jul 1 10:08 GeoIP.dat The output from the logs is Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: using "/usr/share/GeoIP" as GeoIP directory Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Country (IPv4) (type 1) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Country (IPv6) (type 12) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP City (IPv4) (type 2) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP City (IPv4) (type 6) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP City (IPv6) (type 30) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP City (IPv6) (type 31) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Region (type 3) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Region (type 7) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP ISP (type 4) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Org (type 5) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP AS (type 9) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP Domain (type 11) DB not available Jul 1 14:38:56 uk named[1795]: GeoIP NetSpeed (type 10) DB not available On Tue, Jul 1, 2014 at 8:33 PM, Jeremy C.

I use GeoLiteCity.dat for testing. Make a symlink to it named /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat Maybe your geoiplookup tools appears to work but is providing different results not identified as "country"? Does your geoiplookup output say "GeoIP Country Edition"? ___ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
Re: Error when using GeoIP
Hi Jeremy Yes it does see the below [root@uk ~]# geoiplookup ip.ip.ip.ip GeoIP Country Edition: US, United States A bummer though, as I have purchased the Maxmind Country edition. When I did try to install GeoLiteCity.dat I got the error below file /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat from install of geoip-geolite-2013.04-1.el6.noarch conflicts with file from package GeoIP-1.4.8-1.el6.x86_64 Is geoip-geolite not provided by maxmind ?

Re: Error when using GeoIP
Hi Mukund This is the paid version of the DB, tailing that file states GEO-106 20140624 Build 1 Copyright (c) 2014 MaxMind Inc All Rights Reserved As said it does work with the geoiplookup tool. seLinux is disabled and permissions for files are default on a fresh system..see below for GeoIP dir under /usr/share drwxr-xr-x2 root root 4096 Jul 1 10:11 GeoIP BUT You sent me the right direction, I am chrooting my named server, so naturally the location bind is looking is /var/named/chroot/usr/share/GeoIP not /usr/share/GeoIP So putting the GeoIP.dat file there actually worked !! Now I only have to edit the cronjob to copy the updated GeoIP.dat file to the chroot when Maxmind updates. Thanks !
