Brethern,
As you grow to know me, you'll come to know that most of the issues I have are typoes or stupid newbie tricks, but I can't see this one. yet.
Why is the following code tripping the or condition if it it successfully moving the file? I've printed out the string and the variables are expanding coreectly, cutting an pasting the output to the command line works without an error... I'm stumped.
system("mv $filename $localpath/archives/") or Die ("data load","YTS
+MSC","High","Could not move file: $filename for successful exi
t: $@");
"Die", BTW is from a package I've created that writes to a log file and DB table before exiting.
In reply to Do and Die

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
