If this is a representative sample of your data, then none of the fields have whitespace in them, so you should split on whitespace.
my @fields = split /\s+/, $templine;
# do something with $fields[0], $fields[4], etc ..
or something more legible..
my %record;
@record{qw/group ac g f start end time mb files l kb/}
= split /\s+/, $templine;
# do something with $record{group}, $record{f}, $record{end}, etc..
Another quick note: you can condense your code a lot -- iterate over the lines of the file instead of the indices:
use strict; # hint hint
my $file = 'c:\somepath\somefilename';
open (FILE, "<$file") or die "Cannot open $file for read :$!";
foreach (<FILE>) {
chomp;
if (/\bdbweb./) {
# do stuff with $_ now
}
}
close(FILE);
