Hello, I seem to be missing the proper use of push... I thought I could push an variable onto the end of an array (Right side of array) by using somthing like...

push(@array,$variable);

I am chomping from a log file an Error message and assigning it to the variable of $errout then I push the $errout into @array and print it to a file before the end of the script.
I seem to have the problem that only the last if statement that is chomping my error messages is populating the @array. I was wondering if someone could point out my mistakes from this small code sample.

the error messages that the script is reading is ascii text ie...
file/path - skipped
file/path - cannot verify
file/path - corrupt file

##### cannot verify error - and Populate Output file#####
   if (@txtfile[$i] =~ /\bcannot verify/) {
    chomp ($errout = @txtfile[$i]);
    push(@outfile,$errout);
   }
##### corrupt file error - and Populate Output file#####
   if (@txtfile[$i] =~ /\bcorrupt file/) {
    chomp ($errout = @txtfile[$i]);
    push(@outfile,$errout);
   }
##### skipped File error - and Populate Output file#####
   if (@txtfile[$i] =~ /\b- skipped/) {
    chomp ($errout = @txtfile[$i]);
    push(@outfile,$errout);
   }
