i have a wierd issue with a user from the united kingdom getting on my site. he told me he got banned by sentinel but there is no new ips in my blocked ips since the last person was blocked, further my site didnt e-mail me of the block/attack

so i belive it must with ip2country. when i try to import the data ( i have never imported any ip2country data since install ) my browser just keeps clicking and refreshing over and over and over. i have to close out the page to stop it and reopen a new browser window and go back to my site and go to the next country to import

is this a known issue ? or is there something really wrong here ? lol

thanks guys btw i am running sentinel 2.5.05

that is normal now for Sentinel, it will go through and import each file in the import folder, and it does that refresh between each file.

Just start it and wait, it will take awhile but it will stop when it is done.

At least thats the way it works for me now. It threw me at first so I dumped the table and used the SQL statments but it came out the same, so I know it worked for me.

p.s. you could delete all but the few countries you want to import from the import folder that would speed it up.
