my $dbh=DBI->connect($dsn,$opts{user}{value},$opts{password}{value}) |
+| die($!);

The  || operator has higher precedence than the  = operator so you should either enclose the assignment in parentheses or use the lower precedence  or operator.

According to the DBI manual:

If the connect fails (see below), it returns "undef" and sets both $DBI::err and $DBI::errstr. (It does not explicitly set $!.) You should generally test the return status of "connect" and "print $DBI::errstr" if it has failed.

So that line should be: 

my $dbh = DBI->connect( $dsn, $opts{ user }{ value }, $opts{ password 
+}{ value } ) or die $DBI::errstr;

If the first  ^-h$ pattern doesn't match what makes you think that the second one will? 

  $s_insert=<<EOT;
/*
  Insert SP for $table
*/
drop procedure if exists insert_$table;
delimiter //
create procedure insert_table (

Shouldn't that be: 

  $s_insert=<<EOT;
/*
  Insert SP for $table
*/
drop procedure if exists insert_$table;
delimiter //
create procedure insert_$table (
EOT
