I don't see what I am doing wrong here. I am trying to print to the
filehandle LINOUT but nothing is being printed to the file.
Ultimately I want to monitor the input file and when it is written to I
want to take the update and put into another file for processing.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
open(INFILE, "tail -f /tmp/lin_tape.errorlog |") or die "can't
open file: $!";
open (LINOUT, ">", "/tmp/linout") or die "lin tape out file
could not be opened :$!";
my $line;
while ( $line = <INFILE> )
{
print "$line\n";
print LINOUT "$line";
print LINOUT "hey\n";
}
close(INFILE);
close(LINOUT);
