In many cases, `cp` on the DB file won't be enough. For instance, when WAL (Write Ahead Logging) is enabled (which is much faster than the old rollback journal), some data may lie in other files aside the main DB. I once had a problem where my application couldn't read from a SQLite DB whose file was read-only. Turned out that even a read-only access to the DB required a write access to the directory, for a WAL DB. This was partly fixed years later, but I'd learned the hard way that a SQLite DB may be more than a single file.
