when you move the file, doesn't that delete it?

from the File::Copy docs

* The "move" function also takes two parameters: the current nam +e and the intended name of the file to be moved. If the destination already exists and is a directory, and the source is not a directory, then the source file will be renamed into the direc +tory specified by the destination. If possible, move() will simply rename the file. Otherwise, it copies the file to the new location and deletes the original. +If an error occurs during this copy-and-delete process, you may be l +eft with a (possibly partial) copy of the file under the destinati +on name. You may use the "mv" alias for this function in the same way t +hat you may use the "cp" alias for "copy".

of course unlink is failing!
