Inappropriate ioctl for device error (Spreadsheet::write excel close)

[svar]

I get this message from a statement
$workbook->close() or print "$! \n";
where workbook is a Spreadsheet::WriteExcel object.
Anyone understand what this maybe about? Could it be perl thinks the file is already closed?

Has your object gone out of scope maybe?

May be a slight mistake in your perl code syntax??

Have a look at it:

Not sure how the link is relevant unless the idea is to look at
@ARGV as the result of the close call?

Link is just to show that having mistakes with the syntax might produce this kind of error.
