Help with Error

Can't Post

Hello,
I am farily new to Perl but have a question on a program I am working on. I have a form that is used to add information to a flatfile database called cars.dat. The problem I am having is that once the form is submitted I get an "500 Internal Server error" but the program still does everything it is supposed to do but show the confirmation page that the listing has been added. Here is the code I am using to handle the form.
