My uneducated guess would be that it is not directly a Class::DBI issue but some
other part of your kit.  Have you installed the latest version
of DBD::SQLite?  If so can you use DBD::SQLite in a stand alone script, e.g.
what happens when you run this :

#---

use strict;
use DBI;
 
eval {
  my $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=is_sqlite_ok","","");
  unless (defined $dbh and $dbh->ping) {
    die;
  }
};
 
if ($@) {
  die "SQLite not working";
} else {
  print "SQLite looks OK\n";
}
