in reply to Use Mkdir to create dir from list

I think you have a couple problems.

# make_path(map {chomp} <$GSR_fh>);
# make_path(map {chomp} <$GSR_fh>);

chomp returns its success/fail status, not the $_. So you're probably going to just feed a list of 1s to make_path. You could change it to map { chomp; $_ }.

And the map is consuming/reading the whole filehandle. So if you're really doing the second make_path, you will end up with no input at all. Update: Corion already caught this and more.

    Currently Studying the threads and attempting to understand each replies ramifications. I believe I may have an issue with my code having access to File::Path so working to verify the module is active now. At this moment no errors with current version. Yet no directories as well.

    As of 2012.06.22 recommended solutions do not provide directories from list in ASCII file. Still reading through manuals and looking for error codes to understand problem.
