If you can run $npm list sqlite3 and you get a response like...

MyAppName@0.0.1 /path/to/MyApp └── sqlite3@3.0.10

Then the problem is likely that sqlite3 doesn't work in Electron (without some coercing) and Sequelize doesn't know how to express the error.

See this blog post to get sqlite3 working in Electron. This should fix your issue with Sequelize.
