RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded while converting py to exe

Question

I created a program and was trying to convert the py to exe. For which I firstly installed pyinstaller by pip install pyinstaller and then I went to the directory where the program is and opened terminal in that directory.

The command which I used to convert the py to exe was pyinstaller --onefile main.py.

main.py was my file name and I didn't use -w because I need console and my program doesn't have any GUI.

I'm getting RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded Error. The dist and build directory are created but dist doesn't have anything inside.

The program which I'm converting is available here.

build consist of one folder named main which has two files inside in it one is base_library.zip and another is main.exe.manifest. — Abhishek Tripathi
