Not able ot collect perldoc output to a file

I need the output of perldoc command collected to a file

Code:
[root@ser]# perldoc -l File::Scan::ClamAV > /usr/src/asas.txt
No documentation found for "File::Scan::ClamAV".

[root@ser]# cat /usr/src/asas.txt
[root@ser]#

What do you mean? I added to your code my comment:
Code:
[root@ser]# perldoc -l File::Scan::ClamAV > /usr/src/asas.txt 
                                                             # here you redirect standard output  (&1)
No documentation found for "File::Scan::ClamAV".
                                                             # only this is considered as "error" (&2)

[root@ser]# cat /usr/src/asas.txt                            # So its normal you have no output here...
[root@ser]#

If you wanted what you saw on your screen to be in the output file this is what you should have done:
Code:
perldoc -l File::Scan::ClamAV > /usr/src/asas.txt 2>&1
