Updated MySQL tutorial

December 2, 2024

On November 27, 2024, we updated our tutorial on importing the CSV version of MaxMind databases to MySQL to address an issue in which some IPv4 and IPv6 addresses could overlap.

Our updated tutorial includes new instructions for querying the resulting MySQL tables in order to account for this possibility.

If you used a previous version of this tutorial, it is recommended that you consult the updated version. You can get a list of the updated sections in the alert at the top of the updated tutorial, or you can view the change on Github.
