I have a Perl file autoConfig.pl and it outputs comments to a log file. Where and by what name would this log file be created ? Wil it be in same location as autoConfig.pl ? OR will log file be created in different location ? Can someone please let me know from following code segment ? 
....my $displayOnlyNonProdRegion = 0;

$selected_release_cnt = 0;

$logname = $cgi->{form}{LOGFILE};
$rowcnt = $cgi->{form}{rowcnt};
$user_id = $cgi->{cookie}{iw_user};
$site = $cgi->{form}{selected_site};
$releaseDCR = $cgi->{form}{selectedReleaseDCR};

if ($ENV{HTTP_REFERER} !~ "scc_sel_edition"){
   ## if coming from deploy edition script
   $rowcnt = $cgi->{form}{release_cnt};
}
#used to tunnel all of the GET/POST args that are not explicitly manag
+ed by the cgi.
$other_tunneled_data = $cgi->get_implicit_data_tunnel_html();

# open LOG_FILE, ">>$logname" or print "Unable to create logfile: $log
+name\n";
open LOG_FILE, ">>$logname" or print "Unable to create logfile: " . av
+t_encode_path($logname) . "\n";
autoflush LOG_FILE 1;...........
