Hello, I have been working on a program to download files through Net::FTPSSL and finally got that part working. The next part of the program is to unzip the file and do some processing. The issue I have come across is that I cannot do a file test to ensure the file is there or stat the file. I get that it is not found, but it does exist. Any ideas why this would occur? Below is part of the code and where it occurs at.

my @remote_files = $ftp->nlst();

    my @get_files;
    print "The current date is $month $day $year\n" if $DEBUG eq 'yes'
+;
    foreach $file (@remote_files) {
        chomp($file);
        if ($file =~ /O$year\_$month\_$day/ ) {
            push @get_files, $file;
            print "Remote file matches needed file date $file\n" if ($
+DEBUG eq 'yes');
        }
    }

    my $new_file;
    foreach $new_file (@get_files) {
        &ftp_files($new_file, $ftp);
        chomp($new_file);

        print "zip_file $ccp_home/$new_file\n" if $DEBUG eq 'yes';
        if ( -e "$ccp_home/$new_file" ) {
            print "unzipping $ccp_home/$new_file\n" if $DEBUG eq 'yes'
+;
            system("/usr/bin/unzip -q $ccp_home/$new_file");
            $month = &fix_date($month);
            $year -= 2000;
            $year = &fix_date($year);
            $day = &fix_date($day);
        } else {
            print "File for unzipping not found: $ccp_home/$new_file\n
+" if $DEBUG eq 'yes';
        }
