Hello, I am a bit puzzled. I have a piece of code that decodes an XML stream and I am getting an error that tells me 'file does not exist'. I am getting the file does not exist on the XMLin line. This code has worked like a charm for months and now it just stopped. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance! 
use DBI;
use CGI;

&set_content();
&callFunctions();

sub callFunctions {
    my $xml = '<hdsso><hpid>--------</hpid><pin&g
+t;abcbs-hd</pin><fname>--------</fname><mname&gt
+;</mname><lname>-------</lname><dob>-------&l
+t;/dob><email>-------</email><ls>----------</
+ls><ws>---------</ws></hdsso>';
    
    use XML::Simple;
    $XMLref = XMLin($xml, suppressempty => '');
}

sub set_content {
    $q = new CGI;
    print $q->header( -type => 'text/html',-P3P => 'CP="NOI ADM DEV PS
+Ai COM NAV OTRo STP IND DEM" policyref="/w3c/p3p.xml"');

    use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser carpout);
    if ( open(LOG,">>errors.log") ) { carpout(LOG); }
}
1;
