I've checked for private messages from Chanserv. There aren't any.

I've checked the value of $conn->{channel} and $nick using print statements. They are set to the correct values. Here is the on_join sub: 
sub on_join {
    my ($conn, $event) = @_;

    my $nick = $event->{nick};
    if ($nick eq ("xxx" || "yyy")) {
        
        $conn->privmsg("Chanserv", "OP $conn->{channel} $nick");
        print "Auto-Op $nick\n";
        $conn->privmsg($nick, "You have been Auto-Oped by $mynick");
        $conn->me($conn->{channel}, "Auto-Ops $nick");
    }
    $conn->privmsg($conn->{channel}, "Welcome, $nick!")    unless ($ni
+ck eq $mynick);
    print "[$mynick] Welcome, $nick!\n"    unless ($nick eq $mynick);
}

$mynick is equal to the bot's nick.
xxx and yyy are the nicks of the users to be OPed.
