Mysql server dies at about 1300BST everyday

[hayden.barwick24]

It would appear that the MySQL server on buro is dying everyday at around 1200-1400 (GMT+1).
The error received is "Too many connections" which brings down the websites and access to phpmyadmin.

When this issue is reported on here and it has been looked at usually the server is working again and the question receives the response of "It works for me".

Can this be looked at via the logs etc to find a possible cause?

PS. Tips for site owners who have this issue; put a redirect to the google cache version of your site if your database link fails to connect.

Like clockwork, down again.

1300 down again. It's not just me that's having the problem.

....and again.

It has to be some sort of backup script that it running at this set time which overloads the server for a while.
