I keep getting this error: "Can't modify scalar chomp in scalar assignment at deploy line 156, near "<STDIN> ;" Execution of deploy aborted due to compilation errors (#1) (F) You aren't allowed to assign to the item indicated, or otherwise try to change it, such as with an auto-increment." I cannot seem to figure out how to correct this issue. Any help would be much appreciated. Here is the subroutine that the error hit. The '<<' marks the line it errored on. 
sub check_ok {
  my $str = shift;
  my $answer = shift;

  print "$str. Continue? y/n ";
  chomp ($answer) = <STDIN>;               <<
  die if 'N' eq uc $answer;
  if ( 'Y' ne uc $answer ) {
    print "Invalid response.  Try again...\n";
    check_ok($str);
  }
  return;
}
