@BBcan177

Yes fully registered... something else is going on...

BBcan177

@nzkiwi68
It's says "not authorized" in the download log.

nzkiwi68

@BBcan177

Ok.... but...

This was an HA pair of SG-4860 firewalls, with the updated pfBlockerNG WITH the MaxMind registration entered and working

Then, config copied out, hand tuned the interfaces, uploaded to a an HA pair of XG-1537

Same MaxMind registration token as before

nzkiwi68

@nzkiwi68 I've tried setting other MaxMind tokens that I have working on other customers, but, no matter what token I seem to put into pfBlocker the Geo IP won't work.

nzkiwi68

Just signed up (again) to MaxMind with a gmail account, got a brand new, shiny, fresh token.

Put into pfBlockerNG-devel v2.2.5_28 and it still won't download GeoLite2

I get:

provels

@nzkiwi68 FWIW (every penny paid...), I'd click "Save settings" in pfB, uninstall and reinstall. And make sure it installs completely before you change pages in the GUI.

BBcan177

Try to copy and paste the key as plain text.

nzkiwi68

@BBcan177 Of course, I tried that again just now... still no joy.
It appears that it is not really saving the token or using the token despite anything I've tried..

My best guess is the old firewall cluster was pfSense 2.3 something and pfBlockerNG old version, upgraded over the past 2 years and something must be left in the current config which is causing pfBlockerNG to misbehave.

Is there anything deeper we can look at?

nzkiwi68

Also a significant point is the backup firewall in the HA cluster is exhibiting exactly the same problem.

If I try and add a new token directly to the backup firewall etc, the same issue occurs, it cannot and will not download the geolite2 database stating "401 Unauthorized"

I really think I'm bumping into a bug, probably something to do with upgrading from;

pfBlockerNG
pfBlockerNG-devel

nzkiwi68

On the backup firewall.

Untick pfBlockerNG "keep settings"
Uninstall pfBlockerNG
Reinstall pfBlockerNG

Only set these minimal settings;
Firewall > pfBlockerNG > General: tick enable pfBlocker
Firewall > pfBlockerNG > IP: enter MaxMind key
Firewall > pfBlockerNG > IP: tick some interfaces for inbound and outbound as required
Firewall > pfBlockerNG > IP: enable "floating rules:
Firewall > pfBlockerNG > IP: enable "kill states"

@nzkiwi68
Only other thing I can suggest is that Maxmind is blocking your wan ip. Are you going out of a vpn connection? Try without.

nzkiwi68

@BBcan177 No VPN

It was working on the old SG-4860 HA cluster, I'm sure if I plugged them back in, it would work.
Can you give me a cmd I can run in the shell that should download the DB?
I can modify the code you give me and put in my token...

I expect that will work and prove there's something amiss with this pfBlocker installation

nzkiwi68

Could it be a rights permission for the local directory where pfBlockerNG tried to save the Geolite2 DB files?

nzkiwi68

I can ping dev.maxmind.com...

nzkiwi68

I think MaxMind may have changed everything and broken pfBlocker.

After logging onto the MaxMind, reading their blog on how to directly download;
https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoipupdate/#Direct_Downloads

I create the following URL;
https://download.maxmind.com/app/geoip_download?edition_id=GeoLite2-country&license_key=XXXXXXXXX&suffix=tar.gz

Where XXXXX is my token / key, but it won't won't download using a browser.

The URLs that pfBlockerNG uses are here for the MaxMind databases:
https://github.com/pfsense/FreeBSD-ports/blob/devel/net/pfSense-pkg-pfBlockerNG-devel/files/usr/local/www/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.php#L70-L84

You can see from your screenshots/posts that it connects to MaxMind and gets "Authorization denied"... So its something on MaxMinds side blocking or rate-limiting you. If you attempt too many downloads in one day than that could block your WAN IP. There is no posted literature on the MaxMind website that indicates their limiting details.

You can try to change your WAN IP if its dynamic and see if that helps. Also login to your MaxMind Account and see the Download History to see how many downloads you completed today.

Other than that, I would contact MaxMind and see what their support has to say. I don't see any issues with the package from the details that you have posted here.

If it is MaxMind blocking you, then you might need to wait 24 hours. Alternatively download the files from another site and copy them to the /usr/local/share/GeoIP folder and run this command to extract them:

php -f /usr/local/www/pfblockerng/pfblockerng.php ugc
