Wordpress "Error establishing a database connection"

[ramsankar]

Hi,

I have been hosting a blog at http://ramsankar.tk. Things were going fine until yesterday I suddenly started getting these "Error establishing a database connection". Well if I had been getting this every time I opened the blog it was even fine, but I am getting it every now and then. I make a post and click Publish and hoy! Again an error, I would need to refresh a hundred times before it gets right again. This is really annoying. Please help me out as this is a portfolio blog and I have given the link to certain universities. I dont want them to checkout the site and see this error message.

check the error_log file in the public_html folder, as I am getting a 500 error when browsing to your website.

Yes, I am having the same issues at http://morethan1.x10hosting/blog <-- my site obviously. I've had these issues on and off for weeks now. Are you ever going to make your databases more secure?

I have this error on my wordpress : Could not establish database connection

My Coppermine has this error: MySQL said: Host 'absolut.x10hosting.com' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'

Yesterday, my FTP hung when trying to connect.

Is that of any help to staff?

MYSQL server on absolut is down at the moment. You have to wait till admin resolve this issue..

We hope this will resolve soon. Sorry for any inconvenience

It seems to be working again now. However, it goes down a lot and I'd really like to see a permanent resolution to database issues. After all, the migration is supposedly complete now. Why the endless connection errors?

MYSQL working , both for boru and absolut.

Are they working on a more robust solution, so that this will happen less?

[ramsankar]

Well, thanks for all these replies. I am somewhat glad to know that this is not a problem with my installation. But at the same time, it is really bad that many are having the same problem.

Today when I checked I am getting less errors, but they are still not gone. My server is Chopin and does that mean MySQL is still not completely migrated on that.

When I checked the error_log, I found these issues

PHP Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 262144) (tried to allocate 122880 bytes) - this one was repeated many times for different files.

Also when I open myPHP Admin Iam getting this error - Error #1040 - Too many connections
