Hello,
I have started receiving calls that clients websites are not accessible from countries which are not on my CC_DENY list. For example Canada. Looking through my logs I am seeing the following lines, repeated multiple times:
Jul 30 09:11:28 server1 lfd[16106]: CC: Processing GeoLite2 CSV Country/ASN database
Jul 30 09:11:31 server1 lfd[16106]: CC: Extracting zone from GeoLite2 CSV Country/ASN database for [995]

Jul 30 09:11:31 server1 lfd[16106]: CC: No entries found for [143] in /var/lib/csf/Geo/GeoLite2-ASN-Blocks-IPv4.csv
When I check the Geo directory I am seeing the CSV files and they were updated with today's date.

BTW, this is with the latest version of CSF 13.04. The issue has been happening for at least a month.
Any ideas or suggestions on steps I can take to address the issue?
Thanks!
GM

Re: Issue with GeoLite2 files and unwanted countries being blocked.
One other note. As a test I added ports 80 and 443 to CC_ALLOW_PORTS and then added CA to CC_ALLOW_FILTER. This unblocked Canada from my server even thought CA is not on the CC_Deny list. I confirmed this using a VPN and testing before and after from a Canadian IP.

Figured out the issue. I had entered Port #'s into a field that should have been for country codes.
