Description

Server crashes with no log when trying to use geoip functions. It has to do with the 1.9.0.6274 GeoIP.dat file being 0 KB. Using the previous version of GeoIP.dat won't crash the server.

Problematic Code (or Steps to Reproduce)

This script will crash the server as soon as a player connects.

#pragma semicolon 1

#include <sourcemod>
#include <sdktools>
#include <sdkhooks>
#include <geoip>
#include <cstrike>
#undef REQUIRE_PLUGIN
#undef REQUIRE_EXTENSIONS

#pragma newdecls required

public void OnClientPostAdminCheck(int client)
{
  if (client == 0)
  {
  	return;
  }
  
  char ip_address[14];
  GetClientIP(client, ip_address, sizeof(ip_address));
  
  char country[3];
  GeoipCode2(ip_address, country);
  PrintToServer("%s", country);
}

Thanks for the report! I'm going to WontFix this as we're moving away from the legacy GeoLite data in #914, but the builds have been fixed to no longer have the broken data file.

Wait, now the last release of sourcemod includes a working GeoIP.dat. Is that already GeoLite2? I'm kinda confused... What is suppose to change from the GeoLite to GeoLite2 support? Will sourcemod functions change or will be the same?

Sorry for the lack of knowledge.

It should be the last version of GeoIP1. GeoIP2 is still in dev. and not merged yet: #914

Oh, ok, thanks.
