Hi @najum98,

Does this happen every time?

How is the program exiting? running to completion or ctrl+c

Once valid subdomains are identified the SubReporter class is responsible for further output & reporting. This is performed in a separate thread, based of queues. More importantly, the report file should be opened during initialization of the class and closed before exiting. If the program exits before the file is properly close, this may result in a blank file.

I am overdue to take another look at the code and add some updates, so I can investigate further. Thank you for your help!

Hi @m8r0wn, I had similar issue, but the reason was masked by the error in subscraper/subscraper/modules/dns_brute.py file, where isAlive is used instead of is_alive. Then subdomain bruteforcing would crash, but everything else continues to run. The results at the end wouldn't write though. Lemme create a PR for it.
