ademmler,

Firstly, these are not URLs the are paths to files.

Secondly, are you sure you have permissions to read from/write to the source file and target directory? Please show us the code you are actually using, and how you are calling it. Have you tried quoting the parameters you are passing to the copy command?
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use File::Copy; my $source = $ARGV[0]; my $target = $ARGV[1]; copy("$source", "$target") or die "Can't copy files ($!)\n"
Update: Fixed typo, reworded last sentence. Hope this helps

Martin
