The old geolocation database format that uses the "geoip" extension is
no longer supported for at least 3 years.
To use the new geolocation database format, you need to use the
libmaxminddb library (https://github.com/maxmind/libmaxminddb) and the
maxminddb extension (https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB-Reader-php.git) .
To use the new method, two parameters must be added to the configuration:
$config['geolocation_fetch_method'] = 'maxminddb';
$config['geolocation_db'] = '/usr/share/GeoIP/GeoLite2-City.mmdb';
Use https://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLite2-City.tar.gz
to update geolocation database information.
