Error message with phpbb3 board

[sefstar2uk]

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Too many connections [1040]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

I have no idea how to put a stop to this, my forums locked up and would not load properly. When something finally did happen it was a blank white screen with no error message.

Any suggestions as to how fix it?

delete all the files in /cache apart from .htaccess and index.html


is it shared hosting or your own VPS ?

Looks like mysql isn't able to handle too much connections

Maybe you should go to better server. Or maybe some one is DDoS'ing it.

If you are on a VPS, you should block port 3306 if mysql runs in same machine with server and forum.
