npm ERR! Failed at the [email protected] install script.
npm ERR! This is probably not a problem with npm. There is likely additional logging output above.

Answer 1

install [email protected] instead.

I discovered this while following the issue https://github.com/mapbox/node-sqlite3/issues/1246#issuecomment-561942175

Answer 2

Try running the command after cleaning the npm cache

npm cache clean

If cleaning cache didn't work , upgrade your npm

 npm install -g npm

If there is any permission issue on upgrading add sudo

 sudo  npm install -g npm

reinstall node-gyp

npm install  -g node-gyp

finally, install sqlite3

npm install --save sqlite3
