I have a script that seems to fail when it is scheduled. I am trying to put some error handling in. I would like to start with the connection to the database. This is my connection string.
my $dbh = DBI->connect( "dbi:ODBC:RETQC_SQL", "sa", "",
{RaiseError => 1, PrintError => 1, AutoCommit => 0} ) or
die "Unable to connect: $DBI::errstr\n";
What I would like to do is write the error message to a file that I have opened.
open( OUTFILE, ">> $destination" ) or die "Couldn't open file for rea
+ding.$!\n";
Edit by thelenm: fixed code tags

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
