software error
Hey...I'm getting the following error on my site:

Content-type: text/html
Software error:
DBSQL (15182): Fatal Error: Unable to connect to the SQL server. Reason: Too many connections at admin/Links/DB_Utils.pm line 325
For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error. ; [Fri Jul 14 17:06:36 2000] add.cgi: DBSQL (15182): Fatal Error: Unable to connect to the SQL server. Reason: Too many connections at admin/Links/DB_Utils.pm line 325


Does anyone know what this means? I can't get my server on the phone or answer any emails.

If you get the error Too many connections when you try to connect to MySQL, this means that there is already max_connections clients connected to the
mysqld server.

If you need more connections than the default (100), then you should restart mysqld with a bigger value for the max_connections variable.

Note that mysqld actually allows (max_connections 1) clients to connect. The last connection is reserved for a user with the process privilege. By not giving
this privilege to normal users (they shouldn't need this), an administrator with this privilege can login and use SHOW PROCESSLIST to find out what could be
wrong. See section 7.23 SHOW syntax (Get information about tables, columns,...).
