I'm not really able to help you with your issue, but is there a reason why you want to block countries with mod_geo?

If you want to block a country server wide it would be better to look at CSF to do this.

Hoi Vlijmen,

geo better way working with blocking.. i have one ban script in php with geoip.inc file this one works correct....
but need directly working from htaccess.. no need for csf for this easy job i think.

If you only want to block Apache requests this would indeed be a way. The reason I suggested CSF is because my assumption was that you wanted to block countries due to abuse/spam. In that case not only Apache is a target but all services so your solution wouldn't be solid.

But unfortunately no experience in the needed rules.

My thoughts, do you have htscanner enabled?
