Hi all this is perplexing me

When I use move from File::Copy, if the destination directory does not exist the file disappears, ie: no src dest file is left as far as I can ascertain.

This is perl 5.32 on fedora 32 with use warnings and use strict. example (literal values inserted for clarity)

my $ret=move (/srv/data/staging/Logan's_Run_103_envs.mp4,/srv/progs/pr
+ograms/Logans_Run/Logan's_Run_103_envs.mp4) or carp say "7884 $EXTEND
+ED_OS_ERROR ";
say '7885 ',$ret;
[download]

So what is happening here?

output

1 at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Gtk3.pm line 572.
7884 No such file or directory
7885 0

(7884 and 7885 are line numbers in the code)
