My below script on Windows puts error or any messages in a txt file. The only thing it displays to screen are the copy command errors which probably will never happen but I want to make sure they dont show up on screen if it does ever happen. Anyway to eliminate the copy commmand errors so they show up in my error txt file or something.

I thought I could use the output to null: copy($fileOne,$fileTwo) > null

That wont work. Please advise. 
use File::Copy;
....

my $errorLog = "copyError.txt";
open STDERR, ">$errorLog" || die "Cant open $errorLog:\n$!";

#Show output to below file
my $information = "$copy.txt";
open(FH, ">$information") || die "Cant open $information:\n$!";
select(FH);

copy($fileOne,$fileTwo) ||  die "Did not copy: $!";

close(STDERR) ||  die "Cant close STDERR: $!";
close(FH) || die "Cant close File Handle: $!";
