Hi Bruce,
SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE always creates the file local to the database server.
If you want to dump results where your perl script is running you'll have to
use another method such as receiving the results of the query normally and
writing the file in the perl script.
Regards,
Thanks all who replied.
After I posted I kept looking and found it... Also had folks point it
out to me.
Your suggestion is what I ended up doing.

As Jay said, it's either a permission issue or the file already exists.
MySQL will not overwrite a file that already exists.
