It was Thursday, April 29, 2004 when John Doe took the soap box, saying: : Hello all, : i write script that open and read file but i have problem. : First, here are a script: : ---- : if (-e $fulltree) { # check to see if file exist : open(FILE, "$fulltree"); : my @f = <FILE>; : close(FILE); : $temp = $f[0]; : ($files, $quotause) = split(/ /,$temp); # line 39 : }
Sounds like your file is empty. You check that your file exists, and that is good, but perhaps you should make sure the file is not empty using '-s' instead of '-e'?
