Try running this repo on my PC (Both win11 and WSL2 Ubantu) and mac. They got the same results.

Somehow the build folder is missing in the module. Try running
npm run build-release
inside the eliza-starter/node_modules/.pnpm/[email protected]/node_modules/better-sqlite3/ . This will create the build folder and try again

I think I ran into this on Linux here

elizaOS/eliza#1990 (comment)

Try

sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
npm rebuild better-sqlite3 --build-from-source

This worked! Thanks.
