- The subject just about says it all. I have written a perl script which
- appears to run okay until it dies with the following message:
-
- "Bad label: _EVAL_ at <filename> line 367"
-
- line 367 is:
-
- open (OUTPUT, "> $oldfile") || die "Couldn't open '$oldfile' for writing\n";
-
- For all the difference it makes, $oldfile is defined and has a sensible value.
- I am using perl version 3.0.1.9, patch level 41.
-
- This error has me completely stumped. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
- Thanks,
-
