Unfortunately no. I believe this project is dead.

You're trying to run python2 code with python3.

The WebUI is still maintained with recoll on its repo web site (framagit): https://framagit.org/medoc92/recollwebui

The version there has been updated for python3 (quite some time ago...) Also see this comment from koniu for confirmation: https://github.com/koniu/recoll-webui/issues/83#issuecomment-723658259
