Try changing:
unlink $file;
to
unlink "$logdir\\$file";
HTH :)

Subject: unlink doesn't
my $logdir = $Server->Mappath ("logs");
if (!opendir (LOGDIR, "$logdir")) {
$Response->write ("Could not open directory $logdir: $!<br/>");
} else {
my @files = grep (/.*\.xml/, readdir(LOGDIR));
@files = sort @files;
@files = sort {$b cmp $a} @files;
my $nCount = 0;
foreach my $file (@files) {
if ($nCount < 20)
{
#do some stuff...
} elsif ($nCount >= 90) {
#delete if more than 90 logs
$Response->write("unlinking file $file<br/>");
unlink $file;
}
++$nCount;
} }
The output is:
unlinking file 2000_2_1.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_9.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_8.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_7.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_6.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_5.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_4.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_30.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_3.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_29.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_28.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_27.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_26.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_25.xml
unlinking file 2000_1_24.xml
etc.
But the files are still there!
What am I doing wrong?
