@JesusRevelles - in my case, everything starts OK. I think I also saw the sqlite warning the first time I ran yarn, but it likely is just for your informatoin (i.e., not an error). I was using the default configuration on Windows 11, where I did "git clone" first, followed by "yarn install" and then "yarn start". I can see 2 files with .sqlite extension - one in the "server-files" subdirectory, and another one in the "user-files" subdirectory.

@mbrijun I'm updating last comment. It's indeed a warning, but then it's preventing the app to run with this error:

TypeError: Cannot open database because the directory does not exist

@JesusRevelles - could it be an issue that data directories do not exist? You can try pre-creating them and running "yarn start" again.

@mbrijun indeed, that solved the issue. Thanks mate.

After debugging it, it seems the code is looking for three files that are not coming by standard in the repo and they should:

• server-files folder
• user-files folder
• .migrate

I've also seen similar issue for proxy-addr:

Error: Your application tried to access proxy-addr, but it isn't declared in your dependencies; this makes the require call ambiguous and unsound.

Required package: proxy-addr (via "proxy-addr/package.json")
Required by: /opt/actualbudget/src/util/validate-user.js
