ScraperAPI in n8n cannot be installed

Hi,

trying to install the node through n8n (v2.9.4) gives the following error:

Error installing new package
Error loading package "n8n-nodes-scraperapi-official" :The specified package could not be loaded Cause: Class could not be found. Please check if the class is named correctly.

Hi @niko-logothetis,

I've investigated and this appears to be a known n8n framework issue rather than a problem with this node package. See n8n#21796 for details: it's caused by stale/corrupted state in n8n's community nodes cache.

Here's a workaround:

1. Stop n8n
2. Remove the cached nodes directory: rm -rf ~/.n8n/nodes
3. Restart n8n
4. Reinstall the community node from the UI

Could you try this and let me know if it resolves the issue?
