- First of all, it is tremendously important that you use secure tainted mode (-T flag). Writing files based upon user input is a huge potential security risk, and now you simply can't publish unsecure code on the internet anymore without having it explode to your face right away.
- Second, you probably need to figure out permissions properly.
- Third you show us the code that works, not the code which isn't working. It's hard to guess what's wrong in code you didn't show...
- Fourth I advise you to first read Ovid's CGI course and also check Perlmod documentation, I guess you're not getting the concept of namespaces and variable scoping right.
