Every few clicks on my website, I get an error message saying too many connections. I’m only receiving around 2-3 connections at this time, not sure what the issue is?
“Too many connections” means your website is using too many connections on the server simultaneously. It is not how many users are using it at any given time.
Thank you, that 1040 error code is extremely useful.
This seems like it could be a server congestion issue. The documentation for this error code refers to a specific connection limit that applies to the whole server.
The site seems to be working fine now though, which makes it hard to check things. How often does this occur, and does it occur on specific times?
They are still occurring because we haven’t done anything to fix it yet. And we haven’t yet done anything because this issue is hard to grasp.
One final option you could try is to create a new hosting account and move your site to it. If the account gets created on a different database server (be sure to check if this is the case, your current account is on sql212, which seems to be bad, everything else is probably OK), you should be able to host your site there without this issue.
Yes, this might work but when I create a new mysql database or a new account, it automatically puts the account on sql212. What can I do to prevent that?
This is an install of phpbb, nothing added to it, the MySQL is connected perfectly. I’ve got this error previously with mybb. I have reason to believe this might be an issue on InfinityFree’s end. If anyone can help, that’d be a blessing.
