You should fix that. I think topics like [How to set up Discourse on a server with existing Apache sites](https://meta.discourse.org/t/how-to-set-up-discourse-on-a-server-with-existing-apache-sites/30013) might have the instructions for that.

I think that if you just don’t set the maxmind key you’ll get a warning when you rebuild but it won’t hurt anything.
