in reply to Embedding MySQL

Is it true when compiling perl script into exe MySQL can not be embedded with that exe.

Yes

Why is that...

Because MySQL is a ~ 10MB+ stand alone application, with its own license, that has SFA to do with perl.

do that mean I have to redo my database?

Not the data per se but yes to the access mode. If you want to create a standalone exe with perl and an embedded DB (as you sound like you do) you will find DBD::SQLite (a stand alone RDBMS in a perl DBD) works easily. You can compile that in and then add the data file and that's it.
