Re: Phantom directories created using mkdir

in reply to Phantom directories created using mkdir

Hi ,

The $scalar , is it defined using a my (should be) you should use like

      if ($scalar ne ""){

          $dir_name = "/path/$scalar";
          mkdir $dir_name, 0777 unless -d $dir_name;

      }else{

           # print " the error and exit $! \n";

      }

As I have only this part of your total post , I guess you are checking for the definition rather than the value of the scalar variable
