Cannot Generate XML report about theharvester HOT 7 OPEN

Need to fix that part of the code. Right now it only HTML works.

Need to fix that part of the code. Right now it only HTML works.

if filename!="":    
    try:
        print "Saving file"
        html = htmlExport.htmlExport(all_emails,full,vhost,dnsres,dnsrev,filename,word,shodanres,dnstldres)
        save = html.writehtml()

        filename = filename.split(".")[0]+".xml"
        file = open(filename,'w')
        file.write('<theHarvester>\n')
        for x in all_emails:
            file.write('<email>'+x+'</email>\n')
        for x in all_hosts:
            file.write('<host>'+x+'</host>\n')
        for x in vhost:
            file.write('<vhost>'+x+'</vhost>\n')
        file.write('</theHarvester>\n')
        file.close
        sys.exit()
    except Exception,e:
        print e 
        print "Error creating the file"

file.write('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n')

Minor typo, but should file.close not be file.close() ?

The problem is that I can save the output in a HTML file if I search with 
google but not with linkedin

ex:

theharvester -d target.com -f example.html -l 500 -b google --> IT WORKS!

theharvester -d target.com -f example2.html -l 200 -b linkedin --> DOESN'T WORKS

It doesn't generate any file and any output. (Last version.)

Thanks

After the linkedin part runs its course it does a sys.exit() so it nevers makes 
it to the xml formatting. I just commented that line out. I also made some 
other adjustments to create the xml file. I created these variables underneath 
the start function. 
         all_emails=[]
        all_hosts=[]
        people=[]
        vhost=[]


then this is my code for the xml file creation. 

if filename!="":
                print "inside loop"
                if "html" in filename:
                        try:
                                print "Saving HTML file"
                                html = htmlExport.htmlExport(all_emails,full,vhost,dnsres,dnsrev,filename,word,shodanres,dnstldres)
                                save = html.writehtml()
                                sys.exit()
                        except Exception,e:
                                print e
                                print "Error creating the file"
                elif "xml" in filename:

                        print "SAVING XML FILE"
                        filename = filename.split(".")[0]+".xml"
                        file = open(filename,'w')
                        file.write('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n')
                        file.write('<theHarvester>')
                        #print people
                        if len(people) > 0:
                                for x in people:
                                        file.write('<person>' + re.sub('[<>]','',x) + '</person>')
                        #print all_emails
                        if len(all_emails) > 0:
                                for x in all_emails:
                                        file.write('<email>'+re.sub('[<>]','',x)+'</email>')
                        #print ip_and_hosts
                        if len(all_hosts) > 0:
                                for x in full_host.check():
                                        host = x.split(':')
                                        file.write('<hostname>'+re.sub('[<>]','',host[1]) + '<ip>'+host[0]+'</ip></hostname>')
                        if len(vhost) > 0:
                                for x in vhost:
                                        file.write('<vhost>'+re.sub('[<>]','',x)+'</vhost>')
                        file.write('</theHarvester>')
                        file.close()
                else:
                        print "File format not supported...Aborting Save"


I'm not a developer so there might be ways of doing this but it seemed to work 
in all my tests.  Good Luck!
