I have no idea why my code is failing silently. PDO and PDO SQLite are confirmed loaded. Errors are turned on and OTHER errors display.

The SQLite file exists. Perms are set correctly. If I change the filename, PHP actually DOES create the file but still fails silently. No output or commands are excecuted after the "$dbh = new PDO($db_conn);" command. I'm not sure what else I can possibly do to troubleshoot.

What else... this is on Modwest shared hosting.

ABOUT TO RUN
<?php
 // Destination
 $db_name = '/confirmed/valid/path/DBName.db3';
 $db_conn = 'sqlite:' . $db_name;

 try
 {
  var_dump($db_conn);
  $dbh = new PDO($db_conn);
  $dbh->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
 } catch (Exception $e) {
  exit("Failed to open database:  {$e->getMessage()} \n" );
 }
?>
THIS NEVER OUTPUTS!
