Anyone know what the cause of this error is? My forum has just started doing this. It happens on the first try of entering the forum, but when you go back and try it agiain it works. This also happens on the admin side as well.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

It's has something do with your host, they need to raise your max users connections.

Really? I use Yahoo as my host.

I guess I will email them about the issue. Thanks.

yahoo, that's weird.

I don't think they need to raise the number of connections, that would probably give the max_user_connections message, this just looks like a poor connection.
