MM_LICENSE_KEY key error

[Himanshu G]

We are getting following MM_LICENSE_KEY key error while starting the CSF firewall on the server:-

"ERROR: Country Code Lookups setting MM_LICENSE_KEY must be set in /etc/csf/csf.conf to continue using the MaxMind databases".

Please provide the resolution and explain this feature.

MaxMind changed their policy from 1st Jan 2020 and need the license key to enable this feature in the CSF firewall. You can get the free license key by accessing the following link:-

This plugin allows to enable and disable the country CIDR ranges.
