The code I posted properly parses the data you posted, and creates the output you defined.
... or return \%unitMap;
Your code is attempting to "return" if the open fails - where do you expect this to return to ? (You are not in a SUB at that point)
Also, the hash it is attempting to return is not declared.
By posting incomplete, and incorrect snippets, you are losing credibility. Without error or diagnostic messages, it is getting impossible to assist you.
- Show Actual code (Or, preferably, a relavent functional subset that demomstrates the issue)
- Show actual data to be used (relevant subset) (include spacing .. i.e. are there leading spaces?)
- Show actual output (relevant subset)
- Show how the command was run, and error messages, if any
- Show what you expected it to produce
