sub get_file_from_log(){

open(my $log_file, "<", $log_name);
Your prototype says to accept NO arguments but your next line says to accept ONE argument. You should not use prototypes!
You should always verify that open worked correctly before trying to use a possibly invalid filehandle.
open(my $log_file, "<", $log_name);
my $file_name;
while (<logFile>){
You are opening the filehandle $log_file but you are trying to read from the filehandle logFile?

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).
