I don't think the debugger could really have helped me here... I found the source of the error message (No such file or directory)... Theres a file test (-e) used in the open method in both of the modules. However, it doesn't explain those warnings from Tie:IxHash or the fact that $ini->put() returns false... Is there something wrong with Tie::IxHash's way of doing splice?

Sample from the open sub:

sub open {
    my ($self, $file, %args) = @_;

    if (defined $file) {
   $self->{file} = $file;
    } else {
   $file = $self->{file};
    }

    # No need to do anything if this is a new file.
    return 1 unless(-e $file)
