That error is not critical - it just means there is no ready-made serialport binary for your target architecture. If there is a problem with rebuilding serialport there will be other errors: but that would have given you 'missing node' warnings in node-RED, not just disappearing data.

Please can you restart your Node-RED (with the rfxcom node in place) with the environment variable RED_DEBUG set to rfxcom:

RED_DEBUG=rfxcom node-red-pi

This will turn on debug logging for the rfxcom node. I suspect it is failing to connect to your RFXtrx433E, but if you try this and send me the console output I may be able to help you better.
