Sometimes your script may not be operating in the directory you think it is (e.g., script run under a web server), or there may be a typo in a file name, or some other problem, etc. Comment out the chmod line and try this to see if you get what you are expecting:
my $original_mode = (stat( $original_file ))[2];
my $target_mode = (stat( $target_file ))[2];
print "Original Filename: $original_file\nOriginal mode: $original_mod
+e\n";
print "Target Filename: $target_filename\ntarget mode: $target_mode\n"
+;

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).
