Alright... I have a forum... It uses MySQL and F2S And is Vbulliten 2.0 Alpha (B1).... But some times I get this error:

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Too many connections in /web/sites/88/ra2world/www.redalert2-world.f2s.com/forums/admin/db_mysql.php on line 37

There seems to have been a slight problem with the database. Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.



I get an e-mail (Becuase I am Technical Staff) Syaing the same thing. I am only using about 1.5MB of my 5MB limit!!! What is the problem?

well... if you would *read* what the error is... hehe

too many people on the server have their SQL accounts running, and connections to it...

The SQL server is limited to a certain number... :(

In the last few days, f2s mysql has been down often, maybe they're making updates or something.

me too! :D

it's not your fault. mySQL can handle only so many connections at once. i would prefer MS SQL because it can handle more connections at a time, but vB doesn't support it :(

You can change the number of connections that mySQL is supposed to handle by changing the mySQL config files which only the server administrator can do. mySQL has been proven to handle thousands of connections. See the benchmarks here -> http://www.mysql.com/information/benchmarks.html. It even beat Oracle in some cases.
