How to print out different values from same key?

I have a two hashes with the same key but different values.

%HASH1

ERROR MESSAGE1 => A1
ERROR MESSAGE2 => A2
ERROR MESSAGE3 => A3
ERROR MESSAGE4 => A4

%HASH2

ERROR MESSAGE1 => C4
ERROR MESSAGE2 => C5
ERROR MESSAGE3 => C6
ERROR MESSAGE4 => C7

My code looks like this

my %errordata;
for my $key (keys %hash1) {
    $errordata{$key} = [ $hash2{$key}, $hash1{$key} ];
}

use Data::Dumper; 
print Dumper \%errordata;

So, my question is how can I print the values without the first hash's values based on the code above? because I tried doing a while loop but it shows the ARRAY(0x2113a30) instead.

while (my($g,$w) = each %errordata)
{
   print "$_" for @{$w};
}

Thank you.

EDIT

output should something like this

ERROR MESSAGE: ERROR MESSAGE1
FULL PATH: A1
LINE: C4

Please investigate following piece of code for compliance of your problem.

NOTE: while( my($g,$w) = each %errordata ) will not order pairs base on key order (use for with sort keys %errordata instead)

use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';

my %hash1 = ( 
    'ERROR MESSAGE1' => 'A1',
    'ERROR MESSAGE2' => 'A2',
    'ERROR MESSAGE3' => 'A3',
    'ERROR MESSAGE4' => 'A4'
);

my %hash2 = (
    'ERROR MESSAGE1' => 'C4',
    'ERROR MESSAGE2' => 'C5',
    'ERROR MESSAGE3' => 'C6',
    'ERROR MESSAGE4' => 'C7'
);

my %errordata;

for my $key (keys %hash1) {
    $errordata{$key} = [ $hash2{$key}, $hash1{$key} ];
}

use Data::Dumper; 
print Dumper \%errordata;

say '--- Loop while --------------';
while (my($g,$w) = each %errordata)
{
    say 
"ERROR MESSAGE: $g
FULL PATH: $errordata{$g}[1]
LINE: $errordata{$g}[0]";
}

say '--- Loop for ----------------';
for( sort keys %errordata ) {
    say 
"ERROR MESSAGE: $_
FULL PATH: $errordata{$_}[1]
LINE: $errordata{$_}[0]";
}

Output

$VAR1 = {
          'ERROR MESSAGE3' => [
                                'C6',
                                'A3'
                              ],
          'ERROR MESSAGE2' => [
                                'C5',
                                'A2'
                              ],
          'ERROR MESSAGE1' => [
                                'C4',
                                'A1'
                              ],
          'ERROR MESSAGE4' => [
                                'C7',
                                'A4'
                              ]
        };

Your code until it builds %errordata hash looks fine.

While retriving the data from %errordata, you're expecting it to print values as FULL PATH and LINE as values for each key called ERROR MESSAGE.

You can use foreach loop to print them.

...
foreach my $key( sort keys %errordata ){
    print "ERROR MESSAGE: $key\n";
    print "FULL PATH: $errordata{$key}[1]\n";
    print "LINE: $errordata{$key}[0]\n";
}

Since LINE and FULL PATH would be always your hash of arrays 1st and 2nd element respectively.
