It looks like it's the same as #228 which is marked as "fixed". Apparently not, since I'm getting it too, not through laravel but directly when trying to require('sqlite3'). My sqlite3 is 3.1.8 and Node is 6.9.4.

I am getting a similar issue with node when starting the server on heroku. It works on local though.

Error: Cannot find module '/app/node_modules/sqlite3/lib/binding/node-v48-linux-x64/node_sqlite3.node'

My sqlite3 is 3.1.8 and Node is 6.2.1

Edit: The problem was because I was using yarn to install my dependencies and I think the .lockfile generated by yarn is setting sqlite3 to install in a 'darwin' environment (mac local), when it needs to install in a 'linux' environment when deployed. If I instead use npm install, it works.
