Bingo! That helped me see that it was my date being set to "xx/xx/xx"
which of course was seen as directories within the script. I changed
for date format to "xx-xx-xx" and the problem is solved.
Thanks again for your help.

You might want to try a more verbose error message, like:
warn "Can't copy file $dirfrom$dbpath[$i]/$dbname[$i] to $dirto$backup
- $!\n";
That would verify that it's trying to copy what you think it's trying
to copy.
