If you're having syntax issues then you *really* need to refer to the
docs. You don't need to read the whole damned book; just look up the
function with which you have problems in the index or online docs. It
is not that hard to see the syntax of open() and compare it to what
you have to see why it fails.
And the mod_perl list is *NOT* for intro to perl questions. It is
about mod_perl, not generic perl.
