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.
