    WebHostingTalk Website Errors?

    Is anyone getting this error:

    Warning: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (111) in /home/whtalk/www/admin/db_mysql.php on line 38



    There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.
    Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

    An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

    We apologise for any inconvenience.

    Just a note here: it seems the constant stream of users over the last week has been putting greater stress on the server, thus producing more MySQL errors. Headsurfer and Matt's looking into it.
    My 2 Cents.... (or is that 2.2 cents inc. GST...?)

    Have a think about this : Programming is like sex. Make a single little mistake, and you'll be supporting it for the rest of your life.

    If an email is really dispatched to technical staff every time someone gets this error, you must be getting quite a few, since I refresh until the thing works.

    Yeah, but www2 is so slow... I'd rather just have to hit refresh 50 times every half hour or so.

    This is a reponse to chicken's post. Which appears below mine when I view this thread.
