Here is the error I am getting : Uncaught exception from user code: error: can not lock open: ($_) at /usr/local/bin/ohiohealth/tapesz_chk.OH.pl line 115 Carp::croak('error: can not lock open: ($_)') called at /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Logfile/Rotate.pm 3 Logfile::Rotate::new('Logfile::Rotate', 'File', '$_', 'Count', 10, 'Gzip', '/usr/bin/gzip', 'Dir', ..5 main::logroll('/usr/local/log/fuji_tapeszs.log') called at /usr/local/bin/ohiohealth/tapesz_chk.OH.pl ####################################### ## Set pragmas and modules (LC/UC) ## ####################################### use strict; use warnings; use diagnostics; use MIME::Lite; use Logfile::Rotate; $ENV{"PATH"} = qq(/opt/SUNWsamfs/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/log); my $wd=40; my $tpexports = qq(/usr/local/log/exports); my $hrtlabtapeszs = qq(/usr/local/log/heartlab_tapeszs.log); my $fujitapeszs = qq(/usr/local/log/fuji_tapeszs.log); my $slhtapeszs = qq(/usr/local/log/slh_tapeszs.log); open (FFFF_, "+>$tpexports") || die "could not open file: $tpexports $!"; open (FFF_, "+<$hrtlabtapeszs") || die "could not open file: $hrtlabtapeszs $!"; open (FF_, "+<$fujitapeszs") || die "could not open file: $fujitapeszs $!"; #open (F_, "+<$slhtapeszs") || die "could not open file: $slhtapeszs $!"; system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.H02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $hrtlabtapeszs"); system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.F02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $fujitapeszs"); #system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.L02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $slhtapeszs"); select( (select(FFFF_), $|=1 ) [0] ); open (FFF_, "+<$hrtlabtapeszs") || die "could not open file: $hrtlabtapeszs $!"; open (FF_, "+<$fujitapeszs") || die "could not open file: $fujitapeszs $!"; #open (F_, "+<$slhtapeszs") || die "could not open file: $slhtapeszs $!"; system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.H02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $hrtlabtapeszs"); system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.F02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $fujitapeszs"); #system("archiver -lv|egrep 'sf.L02[0-9][0-9][0-9]' > $slhtapeszs"); select( (select(FFFF_), $|=1 ) [0] ); select( (select(FFF_), $|=1 ) [0] ); select( (select(FF_), $|=1 ) [0] ); #select( (select(F_), $|=1 ) [0] ); while (<FFF_>) { if (substr($_, 52, 5) == 0 ){ chomp $_; my $hvalustr=substr($_, 52, 5); my $htpstr=substr($_, 2, 9); system("samexport $htpstr"); # &logroll($hrtlabtapeszs); print FFFF_ "$htpstr\t$hvalustr\n"; } } while (<FF_>) { if (substr($_, 52, 5) == 0 ){ chomp $_; my $fvalustr=substr($_, 52, 5); my $ftpstr=substr($_, 2, 9); #system("samexport $ftpstr"); &logroll($fujitapeszs.); ###- - -### possible coding errors print FFFF_ "$ftpstr\t$fvalustr\n"; } } #while (<F_>) { # if (substr($_, 52, 5) == 0 ){ # chomp $_; # my $svalustr=substr($_, 52, 5); # my $stpstr=substr($_, 2, 9); # system ("samexport $stpstr"); # &logroll($slhtapeszs); # print FFFF_ "$stpstr\t$svalustr\n"; # } #} if ( -s $tpexports ) { print FFFF_ "\n",'-' x $wd, "\n"; print FFFF_ "TapeID\t BytesRemaining\n\n"; print FFFF_ "Please eject these as offsite permanent!\nOhioHealth Unix Support"; #&mailme; #&logroll; } sub mailme { my $msg = MIME::Lite->new( From => 'stkv440 <xxxxxxxxxxx>', #To => 'OHIS Operations <xxxxxxxxx>', To => 'Derek Smith <xxxxxxxx>', Subject => "ASM Copy 2 exports", Type => 'multipart/related'); $msg->attach( Type => 'TEXT', Path => "$tpexports", Filename => "$tpexports"); $msg->send; } #foreach ($fujitapeszs,$hrtlabtapeszs,$tpexports,$slhtapeszs) { #if ( -s $_ or -s $_ or -s $_ or -s $_ ) { #foreach ($_) { sub logroll { my $logs = new Logfile::Rotate (File => '$_', ###- - - ### possible coding error Count => 10, Gzip => '/usr/bin/gzip', Dir => '/usr/local/log/old', Flock => 'yes', Persist => 'yes' ); $logs->rotate($_); ###- - -### possible code eror } #} #} #} #close (F_) or warn "unable to close file $!"; close (FF_) or warn "unable to close file $!"; close (FFF_) or warn "unable to close file $!"; close (FFFF_) or warn "unable to close file $!"; __DATA__ sf.F02002 capacity: 189.1G space: 0 -il-o-b----- 2 archive sets have no volumes available sf.F02005 capacity: 189.1G space: 123.4G -il---b----- sf.F02006 capacity: 189.1G space: 92.7G -il-o-b----- sf.F02007 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- sf.F02008 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- sf.F02009 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- sf.F02010 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- sf.F02011 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- sf.F02012 capacity: 60.0G space: 59.9G -il-o-b----- thank you! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
