Hi Monks!
I am trying to delete old sessions left by users, and for some reason I cant get my code to work. If someone can see where I am doing something wrong here please it would help me a lot!
Thanks for you help! 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use CGI qw(-oldstyle_urls :standard);
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use CGI::Session ( '-ip_match' );

my $q = new CGI;
# this is coming form a list of old session selected using checkboxes
my @del_sessions = $q->param( 'del_sessions' );

# Unbuffered output
$| = 1;

 foreach my $session_to_del(@del_sessions) {
  
  if($session_to_del=~ /^cgisess_[a-f0-9]{32}$/) {

        my $dele_session = CGI::Session->load( "driver:File", $session
+_to_del,{ Directory => '../sessions' } ) or ("There is a problem tryi
+ng to delete your session.");
        if ( $dele_session->is_expired ) {
           $dele_session->delete() if ($dele_session);
           $dele_session->flush() if ($dele_session);
        }

  }

 }
