Dear Monks, I am opening a few files like this: 
use FileHandle;
usr Fcntl;
my $RLOG      = new FileHandle "+>> $runlog";
my $MLOG            = new FileHandle "+>> $mksysblog";

flock($RLOG, O_NONBLOCK) || warn "no NB lock $!";
flock($MLOG, O_NONBLOCK) || warn "no NB lock $!";

But I keep getting this error:  error: can not lock open: (1) my code giving this error is: 
if ( scalar @_ == 1 ) {
        my $roll1 = @_;
        my $rollog1 = new Logfile::Rotate(
           File     => $roll1,
           Count    => 15,
           Dir      => $dir,
           Gzip     => $gzip,
           Flock    => 'yes',
           Persist  => 'yes'
        );
