Remove $wgIPInfoGeoIP2EnterprisePath from production config
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

$wgIPInfoGeoIP2EnterprisePath was added to WMF production config in T304604.

Now that we are using data from Spur instead of the MaxMind GeoIP2 Enterprise database, we can unset this config.

We still need to use $wgIPInfoGeoLite2Prefix to get geographical, ISP, ASN and organization data.

I noticed that IPInfo only gets ISP from MaxMind's Enterprise database: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/IPInfo/+/b1f9ab1370da79619911c754c875155ceecb81cb/src/InfoRetriever/GeoLite2InfoRetriever.php#196

I think this is OK though, since we get organization from Spur.

@STran Does that sound OK to you?

I am not sure that this needs QA. @dom_walden do you have an opinion on this?

During deployment, I verified a couple of IP addresses and noted that in some cases the address information (city level) varied between enterprise level and GeoLite2. In one case, the GeoLite2 data was more specific; in another case, the Enterprise data was more specific. In several cases, there was no difference in the data.

I guess if you are seeing data for GeoLite2 that is enough. Unless there are any other risks we can think of, we probably don't need to do anymore testing.
