Even if we add in that semi-colon, your code still doesn't compile.

$ cat 11149115.pl
open (STAT, "<", "$file");
while ( $content = <STAT> ) {
     :
    $errcnt  = $total - $content;
}

:

printf RPT "  Number of Rejected Records   : $errcnt\n";
$ perl -cw 11149115.pl
syntax error at 11149115.pl line 3, near ":"
syntax error at 11149115.pl line 7, near ":"
11149115.pl had compilation errors.

Just paste your actual code into the node so our time isn't wasted fixing things you've broken in the copy only. And when you've done that, download the code from the node and try to compile and run it yourself just to be sure.
