Hello Monks:
I am having problems saving some params to a file ( printing();)($file, look at the code). The funny thing is the when I run the code (>perl file.pl ) a file is created. This is what I get in the apache server error log "Cannot save file /var/www/html/datfiles/data.dat at /var/www/cgi-bin/results.pl line 48. ". Please help!

#file.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use CGI::Cookie;
use CGI;

my $cgi = new CGI;
my $file = "/var/www/html/datfiles/data.dat";
 print
                $cgi->header( -cookie => new CGI::Cookie(-name => 'Cho
+colateChip',
                                                        -value=> $cgi-
+>param('color'),
                                                        -expires => 'T
+hu, 26-Sep-2002 00:00:00 GMT'#,
                                                        #-domain => 's
+tudents.byu.edu',
                                                        #-path => '/'
                                                                     )
                        );



print
    $cgi->start_html(-title => 'Results',
                        -bgcolor => $cgi->param('color'));



if ($cgi->param())
{
    print
            $cgi->center(
            $cgi->h3("Hello: ".
            $cgi->param('name')),
               $cgi->p,
            "The keywords are: ",join(", ",$cgi->param('words')),
            $cgi->p,
            "Your favorite color is: ",$cgi->param('color'));

        
    

}
    printing();
print

        $cgi->end_html();

sub printing
{
    open(FILE, ">$file")|| die "Cannot save file $file ";
        print "test";
        print FILE $cgi->param('name');
        print FILE join(", ",$cgi->param('words'));
        print FILE $cgi->param('color');
        close FILE;
