GeoIP doesn't determine the city from which the player connects to the server.

Last time I have a problem with GeoIP2 (included in latest stable SM 1.11 build).

It worked about 1-2 month ago, but at this time i get a <""> result after using GeoipCity function.

If someone knows, tell me, maybe I initially did something wrong. My code:

PHP Code:


			
char ip[64], country[4], city[128];

GetClientIP(client, ip, sizeof(ip), true);

GeoipCode3(ip, country);

GeoipCity(ip, city, sizeof(city), -1);

CPrintToChatAllEx(client, "Player {teamcolor}%N{default} ({olive}%s{default}, {olive}%s{default}) has connected to server.", client, country, city);

An interesting fact is that the country is defined correctly, but the city is not defined at all. The GeoLite2-City.mmdb file version is used from SourceMod 1.11 build 6911

Thanks!

You need update geoip database monthly.
You know, IP's are dynamic, those change all the time.

Thanks for help. I have found an actual version of database here and it works!
