Hi all,

I'm trying to create a zip file with Archive::Zip, this is my code: 
cat /home/user/d/file_list.txt
/home/user/a/a.txt
/home/user/b/b.txt
/home/user/c/c.txt

#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Archive::Zip qw( :ERROR_CODES :CONSTANTS );

my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();

open (FILE_LIST, '/home/user/d/file_list.txt');

while (<FILE_LIST>) {
    chomp;
    my $member = $zip->addFile($_);
    print "Add error" unless ($member);
}

close FILE_LIST;

unless ($zip->writeToFileNamed('/home/user/d/backup.zip') == AZ_OK) {
    die "write error";}

[download]
but I only obtain a void zip :(

What is it wrong?

Thanks :)
