Sqlite doesn t work after update

I have exactly the same problem here on my RPi3 and I recently I found the solution, check if it works for you.

  1. Open a fresh installation of Node-RED
  2. Go to Manage Pallet
  3. Select the sqlite node and install it
  4. Do not touch the system for at least 10 minutes (even if the Node-RED interface tells you that the installation is done)

If your hardware is older than the Pi3 maybe 15 minutes is enough.

This happens because the compilation process of the sqlite binaries happens in background and it takes a looong time to compile in the RPi hardware.
