Answer 1

I got very similar error message when I tried to run the Django development server:

ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading either pysqlite2 or sqlite3 modules (tried in that order): dlopen(/Users/Rubinous/Projects/Jiiri2/jiiri_venv/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_sqlite3.so, 2): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/sqlite/lib/libsqlite3.0.8.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/Rubinous/Projects/Jiiri2/jiiri_venv/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_sqlite3.so
Reason: image not found

I solved this by installing pysqlite Python module with pip install pysqlite.
