Error when attempting to download anything #190

The script was working fine for months. I get this output exactly when it tries to download anything from a website I need to archive part of. I have no idea of how to fix it. I've tried reinstalling macoS, reinstalling ruby, updating ruby, and removing wayback-machine-downloader and reinstalling it. No luck so any help would be extremely appreciated. I need this tool working for a project.

This is the command I used wayback_machine_downloader -sa 'igui.ru' --only "/\.(pxl|deb|ipa|rar|zip|7z|dmg|exe)$/i" and it works fine until I start attempting to download the file types specified in the regex. This exact command worked perfectly for weeks on other sites.
