Deleting a file

[chanshaw]

Can't seem to get this to delete the file, ive tried setting the permissions but it still won't delete.

my $fileName = 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\guessingGame\guessingGame.csv'; 
unlink($fileName);

Please reply to the threads you start.

Try this, see what $! returns:

my $fileName = 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\guessingGame\guessingGame.csv'; 
unlink($fileName) or die "Can't delete file $filename : $!";

There is nothing patently wrong with your usage so either its a wrong path or the file is not closed or some other issue.
