@LanmpPython @XingXiaoWu Can you try running with --log file.log and give me the file.log file? It will help me debug this issue. Thanks!

Hello !

Was this woukarounded?

Okay, I'm having the same problem. In my case, I'm using v2rayn to set up a global proxy, in which case dirsearch would have to use the proxy parameter to set up a local proxy port in order for it to work.

Maybe I used a system proxy, but I turned off the manual proxy in the settings of Windows 11 to solve it.

It sounds like a system proxy setting is overriding the code use by requests.Request to send out requests, and failing, the error returned by dirsearch assumes the ProxyError is from the proxy variable, but this is not true as it is a system proxy that is returning the error

I believe changing this:
err_msg = f"Error with the proxy: {proxy}"

To this:
err_msg = f"Error with the proxy: {e}"

Will reveal the error that the system proxy is to blame here
