Error


"Database connection error!
A connection to the Database could not be established.
Please check your username, password, database name and host.
Also make sure config.php is rightly configured!"

I have been getting this occasionally recently, interspaced with 'connection timed out' errors.
Anyone else getting this?

You betcha other folks are getting the same ,
and periodically the entire site 404's ,
sometimes the main forum index loads ,
but all the links are dead .

It's been a problem for several days running .....
three or four .

Yup, same deal on my end. I thought it was just my connection up till now though.

I've been getting it too - it seems to happen completely randomly.



Never accept that which can be changed.

I think the server this site is on is loaded too heavily or something, because they seem to reboot the machine far too often. When that happens, the forum won't work though the document collections will, because it takes longer for the database to restart than for the webserver.
