Clicking on Who's Online [Complete List] generates the following error:

MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.
SQL Error:
1 - no such column: count_sid
Query:
SELECT COUNT(count_sid) FROM mybb_sessions WHERE (SELECT DISTINCT sid as count_sid FROM mybb_sessions WHERE time > 1229895917)

This is on clean, brand new install of MyBB 1.4.4 on PHP 5.1.6 using SQLite 2.8.17. No plugins.
The same problem was happening on 1.4.3.

Try this. In online.php find:

// Exactly how many users are currently online?
	switch($db->type)
	{
		case "sqlite3":
		case "sqlite2":	
			$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "COUNT(count_sid)", "(SELECT DISTINCT sid as count_sid FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."sessions WHERE time > {$timesearch})");
			break;
		case "pgsql":
		default:
			$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "COUNT(DISTINCT sid) as online", "time > {$timesearch}");
			break;
	}
	$online_count = $db->fetch_field($query, "online");

replace with

// Exactly how many users are currently online?
	switch($db->type)
	{
		case "sqlite3":
			$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "COUNT(count_sid)", "(SELECT DISTINCT sid as count_sid FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."sessions WHERE time > {$timesearch})");
			$online_count = $db->fetch_field($query, "online");
			break;
		case "sqlite2":
			$sessions = array();
			$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "sid", "time > {$timesearch}");
			while($sid = $db->fetch_field($query, "sid"))
			{
				$sessions[$sid] = 1;
			}
			$online_count = count($sessions);
			unset($sessions);
			break;
		case "pgsql":
		default:
			$query = $db->simple_select("sessions", "COUNT(DISTINCT sid) as online", "time > {$timesearch}");
			$online_count = $db->fetch_field($query, "online");
			break;
	}
