Hello,

We have a requirement to block users from certain countries  from accessing certain pages,please help us if anyone have implemented this solution already with AEM and dispatcher with Apache. We have already tried having an .htaccess with all possible IP for a country but is not a feasible one since we have to update those country IP list frequently also tried MaxDB but failing at the step of including MaxDB module at Apache.

Please let us know if any alternatives or detailed step available to acheive above mentioned requirement, thanks for your help in advance.

Happy New  Year 2018

Thanks

SV

I am not sure what could be causing installation issue via yum but give it a try to download the package and install it manually from

Just to have it mentioned here: This question is not specific to AEM or AEM dispatcher, but rather a generic question which relates of Apache httpd.
