Country flags missing!

Post by ntldr »

hey

so I'm using Windows 7 ultimate and latest build of qbittorrent stable. I noticed the country flags are missing.

No flags shown

but I've enabled "resolve peer countries (GeoIP) in the settings.

ideas?

Hi there.
The problem did not get unnoticed. I already opened an issue on qBittorrent's GitHub-page with the same problem:
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/5609

Another user posted a quote of their logs, saying the same as my logs did: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorr ... -238717273

Seems like Maxmind have changed some links to the specific GeoIP2-country file because of a monthly update (or Maxmind screwed up something big), thus qBittorrent cannot download the file. I guess the community needs to change one thing in the source code to get it working -- but then most people of the community do not really have coding experience, such as me. Saying this, it could be an other issue causing the problem (as mentioned above: Maxmind screwed up...), but we need to wait until the issue is found and resolved.
