rvdhout / iis-geoip2block-module Goto Github PK

Just wanted to share some issues I had when I updated

I was getting errors like This method cannot be called during the application's pre start initialization stage within IIS Manager and IIS was throwing the following error Could not load file or assembly 'IISGeoIP2blockModule, Version=2.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=50262f380b75b73d' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

The solution is to go to .Net Compilation -> Assemblies, and update the version to match

This was a bit of a head scratcher for me, so I hope this is useful information to others using this module

I've been seeing this on some sites that have the module enabled, it used to be bad enough that I couldn't use this module on most sites, since updating to 2.4.1.0 it has gotten better but still happens sometimes, I've had a look at failed request trace logs

ModuleName
Geoblocker 

Notification
BEGIN_REQUEST 

HttpStatus
500 

HttpReason
Internal Server Error 

HttpSubStatus
0 

ErrorCode
The operation completed successfully.
 (0x0) 

Not really any useful information there, suppose I should compile the module in debug mode and watch DebugView? Any suggestions? Thanks for your efforts!

Hello, I'm trying to install this module, but when I try to compile it, it tells me JsonProperty and JsonPropertyAttribute were not found.

I tried adding the Newtonsoft.Json module, and it compiled well but it gave me (of course) 2 dlls.
When I try to install on server, it tells me always there are some reference missing.

Any way to compile without 3rd party libraries?
Thanks.
Dario.

Successfully compiled the module, and followed the 'Geoblocker - Manual' however when clicking on the module in IIS it just closes and logs this in event viewer

IISMANAGER_ERROR_LOADING_PROVIDER_TYPE IIS Manager could not load type 'IisGeoblockModule.GeoblockModuleProvider, IISGeoIP2blockModule, Version=2.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=50262f380b75b73d' for module provider 'Geoblocker' that is declared in %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\administration.config. Verify that the type is correct, and that the assembly that contains the module provider is in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC).

Any config pointers to get me on the right track?

Thanks for releasing this!

Is't possible to add IPv6 support?

First of all thank you for updating this module for IIS 10. It would be nice if you could provide a compiled release and/or outline how to build the dll. I have a working VS 2017 setup but a missing Microsoft.Web.Management reference that I'm having difficulty locating (installing Windows 8.1 SDK did not solve the problem).
