what really strange, is that the DB Browser open the messages column in msgstore.db without any issues

From what I understand, for now, it doesn't seem to be the problem of the exporter itself. I can't really tell why it would happen as I don't have your database file. But if you don't mind, you can send me the database for inspection.

In the meantime, you may try this. Just remember to do a backup for your database.

PS. Could you run the exporter with pip install (i.e., not using the binary)? That should give a more verbose traceback for debugging.
