Re^5: make_path for creating directory tree

in thread make_path for creating directory tree

You're trying to create folders in root '/' and dont have proper permission. Try make_path("one/two/three"); or make_path("./one/two/three");

EDIT: Also, you can test if a dir exists before creating it.

next if (-d $dir);    #will skip to next dir IF target dir exists
make_path("one/two/three");

Ugh I'm an idiot. Yes, I was indeed trying to create a folder in root, I corrected that now. Ok first step - use make_path once successfully: done!	[reply]
