%v: file is not found

Error message

%v: file is not found

What it means

Returned while parsing RoutingA domain rules: the dat file named in an ext:<file>:<tag> parameter (e.g. ext:geosite.dat:cn) does not exist in the configured v2ray asset directory (asset.DoesV2rayAssetExist false), so the rule cannot be compiled.

Solutions

1. Download the missing .dat file (e.g. via geo update)
2. Fix the filename in the ext rule
3. Place the file in the assets directory
