Scrapy Pyinstaller OSError: could not get source code / twisted.internet.defer._DefGen_Return

I am trying to publish a very simple scrapy spider as an .exe using pyinstaller. I have searched and read everything i could find but i still cant figure out what is going wrong. Any help or pointers in the right direction are very much appriciated!

If i change the yield to return it doesn't give me the error and works except for it only returning 1 item (which is normal since it is a return and not a yield.) the code works just fine without any errors in my IDE (not using the pyinstaller .exe)

Note: I am using pyinstaller dev version.

Error when running my .exe

Late answer but I'll keep it here for the others, all you have to do is to add this code into your spider, ` import scrapy.utils.misc import scrapy.core.scraper

def warn_on_generator_with_return_value_stub(spider, callable):
    pass

scrapy.utils.misc.warn_on_generator_with_return_value = warn_on_generator_with_return_value_stub
scrapy.core.scraper.warn_on_generator_with_return_value = warn_on_generator_with_return_value_stub`
