Create a folder to store the databases :
mkdir -p /usr/share/GeoIP
Download Country IP database
wget http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCountry/GeoIP.dat.gz
gunzip GeoIP.dat.gz
mv GeoIP.dat /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat
Download City IP database
wget http://geolite.maxmind.com/download/geoip/database/GeoLiteCity.dat.gz
gunzip GeoLiteCity.dat.gz
mv GeoLiteCity.dat /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPCity.dat
Add the following line to your nginx.conf file :
geoip_country /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat;
geoip_city /usr/share/GeoIP/GeoIPCity.dat;
And the following lines to your /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params
fastcgi_param GEOIP_ADDR $remote_addr;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_COUNTRY_CODE $geoip_country_code;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_COUNTRY_NAME $geoip_country_name;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_REGION $geoip_region;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_REGION_NAME $geoip_region_name;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_CITY $geoip_city;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_AREA_CODE $geoip_area_code;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_LATITUDE $geoip_latitude;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_LONGITUDE $geoip_longitude;
fastcgi_param GEOIP_POSTAL_CODE $geoip_postal_code;
Check if everything is okay with nginx -t and then reload nginx service nginx reload
This project updates ip database on weekly bases but it's not working with nginx.
https://github.com/v2fly/geoip
Maybe it can be converted for nginx use.
