Here i am create one xml file for daily updation. BAsed on the date script will be executed at once. which not equal to current date. else back up does not pick bcs same condition which is equal to true. XML file does not get append the daily date. 


use strict;
#use File::Copy;
use Archive::Zip;

my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = localtime;
$year += 1900;
$mon++;
my $today =  "$mon-$mday-$year";
print $hour-$min;
my $filetobecopied = "test.pl";
my $newfile = "test1.pl";mkdir($today);
mkdir($today);

my $zip = Archive::Zip->new();
$zip->writeToFileNamed("$today/$newfile\.zip"); 


open (WRK, "logfile.xml") || die "Cannot open the input file";
read WRK, my $wrk_xml, -s WRK;
close(WRK);

my $getdate=$1 if ($wrk_xml=~ m{<date>(.*?)</date>});
print $getdate;

my $date_flag;
if($getdate == $today){ $date_flag = 'false';}
else {
    
    $date_flag = 'true';}
 
if($date_flag == 'true'){
print "test";
    
### Prepare ready.xml process . . .
my $ready=<<READY;
<backup-file>
<date>$today</date>
<name>$newfile</name>
</backup-file>

READY
print "test";
open (REA, ">>logfile\.xml") || die "Cannot Open thelog xml file";
print REA $ready; 
close (REA);
}
else
{
print "$hour- $min";    
my $ready=<<READY;
<backup-file>
<date>$today $hour-$min</date>
<name>$newfile</name>
</backup-file>
READY

open (REA, ">>logfile\.xml") || die "Cannot Open thelog xml file";
