Title: Help on Critical Error
Post by: martinha on May 23, 2004, 08:50:17 AM
Wehn I try looking at my gallery at http://cgi.martinhart.force9.co.uk/ I get:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

MySQL said: Too many connections

Is this a Coppermine error or something to do with the CGI server at my ISP? I has been working fine for the last 3 months...

This message means what it says -- the number of connections to the ISP's MySQL database is higher than the amount permitted in it's configuration. Ask them to look into the matter for you.

Ooops, found the problem. My ISP was doing some maintenance on the server. ::)

It's a bit of a weird error message, "too many connections" message from MySQL should read "too FEW connections"  :P
