I downloaded latest geodb file (Sourcefire_GeoDB_Update-2017-10-10-005.sh) from download section but get an error, see screenshot. The file looks OK.

ASA 9.8(2)

ASDM 7.8(2)

FirePower 6.2.2-81

Did you check the checksum for the update you downloaded manually prior to putting it on your FMC?

Are you able to try a download directly from Cisco to your FMC?

I updated mine from the on-box FDM directly from Cisco and it worked OK.

The file is OK, checksum and length. When I select 'Download and install geolocation update from the Support Site' and press Import I get an error: 'Failed to fetch latest Geolocation Update from the Support Site' without any further explanation.

Can you resolve DNS and access the Internet using an FQDN from your FMC using the cli?

There are some troubleshooting tips in the following article that might help:
