Good morning, I'm new at all of this but managers want me to look at an Oracle alert log . I call this mail. I want to eliminate from mail.fil certain lines with numbers contained in file THIDSerrs.

!/usr/local/perl-5.12.3/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; open FILE,"< mail.fil"; my @oralines=<FILE>; close FILE; #print @oralines; open FILE,"<THIDSerrs"; my @errs = <FILE>; close FILE; #print @errs; my @subarray = (); foreach my $oralines(@oralines) { foreach my $errs(@errs) { push @subarray, $oralines if grep /$errs/, @oralines; } } print "@sub +array \n"; This doesn't return anything! <code> !/usr/local/perl-5.12.3/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; open FILE,"< mail.fil"; my @oralines=<FILE>; close FILE; #print @oralines; open FILE,"<THIDSerrs"; my @errs = <FILE>; close FILE; #print @errs; my @subarray = (); foreach my $oralines(@oralines) { foreach my $errs(@errs) { push @subarray, $oralines if grep /$errs/, @oralines; } } print "@sub +array \n";

This doesn't return anything! Looking to find common elements between two files and eliminate from one file (mail.fil)
