Hello All,

Greetings!!

Here is a piece of code, using which,I am trying to capture the Error code in a log file on the "die" event. I need to avoid printing the error message on the Console.I havent been successful so far.

Kindly Advice. 

my $db = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle:host=shost;sid=$sid;port=$port", $ui
+d, $pwd) or {capture_error()};
 
#=====================================================================
# simple debugging routine
#=====================================================================
sub debug {
    if ($debug_output) {
#        print STDERR @_;
        # Just return if it fails to open debug file
        open(OUT, ">>$debug_output") || return;
        print OUT @_, "\n";
        close(OUT);
    }
}
 
#=====================================================================
# capture error routine
#=====================================================================
sub capture_error {
    debug("Error while connecting to database!!!\nIncorrect Connection
+ information\n");
    exit(0);
}
