GeoIP doesn't seem to be working

[saniac]

I have configured LIWAN with MaxMind credentials, using environment variables in my service file:

Environment="LIWAN_MAXMIND_EDITION=GeoLite2-City" "LIWAN_MAXMIND_ACCOUNT_ID=XXX" "LIWAN_MAXMIND_LICENSE_KEY=XXX"

On restarting, I see the following in the logs:

Nov 03 01:42:02 liwan systemd[1]: Started liwan.service - Liwan Web Analytics.

After this I have made requests to the web server, to ensure there is new data, but I do not see country information in the dashboard.

Actually, a couple of hours later, country information is showing in the dashboard. Perhaps the issue here is just clarifying how long it takes for updates to happen.

Hi, just checked and right now, if no geoip db exists at startup, it's just disabled until you restart the service. I'll add that as a to-do for me for the next version 👍
