I am writing a small perl program that takes the serial output from our phone switch and puts the individual call records into a Postgres database. Everything works except for the part where I have to open the serial port. I am on RedHat EL 4 and perl 5.8.5. The serial port is /dev/ttyS0, which I know works from the OS level.
I tried open(PORT,"+>/dev/ttyS0") or die "Couldn't open serial port\n"; but that didn't work. I'm missing something, but I can't quite put my finger on what.
