Thanks for updating the post.

You might like to look at Try::Tiny.

It puts the error in $_.

Here's a demo: 

$ perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings -MTry::Tiny -E '
sub my_func {
    my $num = shift;
    say "=" x 20;
    say "Num: $num";
    try {  
      say( 1 / $num );
    } catch {
        say "Your error message here.";
        say "Original error:";
        say ">" . $_ . "<";
    }; # semicolon
    say "Not dead";
}

my_func( $_ ) for ( 0, 1 );

say "=" x 20; 
'

Output: 
====================
Num: 0
Your error message here.
Original error:
>Illegal division by zero at -e line 7.
<
Not dead
====================
Num: 1
1
Not dead
====================

Hope this helps

The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
