Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/issues/2719

The GeoLite2 City Database available for self-hosting is out of date.

Following the link:
https://pkgs.netbird.io/geolocation-dbs/GeoLite2-City/download?suffix=tar.gz

provides GeoLite2-City_20240305

I confirmed that the MaxMind Database has an up-to-date geo entry for a specific IP, but the database provided by the link above is out of date and references the wrong geolocation.

Is this a limitation/delayed service for self-hosting?

Thank you for the great product.

I thought the self hosted version downloads from the maxmind hosted data on startup?

The data hosted by netbird has changed since I posted this issue. Earlier today the link gave me data for 2024-03-05, now I am receiving data for 2024-10-08.

Thank you for fixing the issue in the background.
