Hey guys, what OS are you on? What happens if you type sqlite3 in the command line?

I installed Rasa X today (0.19.2), and I’m getting the same error when running rasa x. I’m using Python 3.7 and trying to upgrade an existing Rasa project.

$ rasa x
Starting Rasa X in local mode... 🚀

I reinstalled the project using Python 3.6 and Rasa X started. The old Rasa (pre-1.0) project worked fine with Python 3.7 though.

I am facing the same issue when using python 3.7. any solutions…?

8

reinstall python3.7 resolves the issue.

I have followed the instructions here:

basically sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev
cd Python-3.7.3 ./configure --enable-optimizations make sudo make altinstall

And it worked !

Hi,

I had exactly the same problem while installing vCD CLI on Cent OS 8.1. I had to install a newer version of SQLite on my linux box then reinstall Pythin 3.7 after that. I have documented the full steps in here in case others are still stuck with it. As I hit this thread before resolving the issue and wanted to contribute back:
