That's not how open works, in your code you you define a variable and ask to print its value

Code:
if ( $list ) {
  my $catcon = "/app/share/ecctools/etc/sysconfig/ecc-config.xml";
   open(my $file_to_cat, '<', $catcon) || die("Could not open $catcon\n\t$!");
   while(<$file_to_cat>){
       print $_;
   }
   close($file_to_cat);
  exit ( 0 );
}
