what error is the open giving? 
> open (LOGFILE, ">>junk.log") ;

open (LOGFILE, ">>junk.log") 
    or die "Couldn't open junk.log for appending : $!";

Also, it may be that somewhere LOGFILE is defined as a constant, and so
the bare filehandle LOGFILE is being interpreted as LOGFILE()

Rather use lexical file handles.
