Quote from: Patrick M. Hausen on January 27, 2026, 12:36:09 AMCan you connect to ipinfo.io via HTTPS?

Yes. And I can download all the different zip files from the links with zero problems. I'm absolutely stymied on how to get this to work.
I've also tried changing GEOIP to host and then going through everything
I've changed IPV4 & IPV6 to just IPV4
I've deleted the alias and tried to just put the URL in, with no luck on any of these

Quote from: Patrick M. Hausen on January 27, 2026, 12:19:09 AMWhat I tried to express: remove the "_src=" parameter from the IPinfo URL to make it match mine and try again. This URL works without a hitch here. I have no idea what this "_src=" thingy is good for.
Thanks, I tried without the "src" and matched your URL and still no luck.

I even tried suggestions from this reddit post
https://www.reddit.com/r/opnsense/comments/1lr6yu5/maxmind_no_longer_provide_geolite_database/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

and got the same error

Quote from: Patrick M. Hausen on January 26, 2026, 11:47:14 PM@buckey96 my link looks like this:

https://ipinfo.io/data/ipinfo_lite.csv.gz?token=MYTOKEN

These are my two links.  I've changed the token to x's, but you guys will get theidea

https://download.maxmind.com/app/geoip_download?edition_id=GeoLite2-Country-CSV&license_key=xxxxxx_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx_mmk&suffix=zip

https://ipinfo.io/data/ipinfo_lite.csv.gz?_src=frontend&token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxcd

I even tried this (from Reddit)
1. Change your Geo Aliases to Host aliases temporarily
2. Apply Changes
3. In GeoIP Settings use the new format URL https://<accountID>:<license key>@download.maxmind.com/geoip/databases/GeoLite2-Country-CSV/download?suffix=zip
4. Apply
5. Change your Alias back from Host to GeoIP
6. Apply

Worked for some and not others

Quote from: meyergru on January 26, 2026, 11:24:58 PMThis seems to differ in business and community versions. In the community version, you have to acquire a license yourself and enter the corresponding URL with a token, whereas in the business version, you only have to choose which one you want.

So I've tried it multiple different ways and can not get it to download.  With both MaxMind and IPinfo and a number of open source databases. None will download

That makes sense, but I don't have the ability to select the source.

I have been unable to get Maxmind, nor IPinfo to work with the alias.
This is the error I get when I use any service, not just the 2 listed above
"In order to use GeoIP, you need to configure a source in the GeoIP settings tab"

I have followed all the instructions for both on how to include the license key and it downloads fine when I go to the URL, but gives me that error everytime when I hit apply.

I already have the alias setup and changed the table size to accomidate the larger table, still no luck.

I'm on 25.7.11 and have been reading all the documentation with zero luck
