I tried opening a file today

I would have expected that to work, but I found this old topic: https://sqlite-users.sqlite.narkive.com/QCh23tfL/i-o-errors-with-wal-on-zfs So it appears that F_ALLOCSP isn't support on ZFS. That topic is 8 years ...

I'm not sure what else to suggest. So far you have given us part of an error message that says that you do not have appropriate permissions.
Perhaps it will help if you give us a step by step description of exactly what you are doing, and exactly what happens.
