ERROR 1040 (08004): Too many connections

Issue : I got the above error while loading website on the browser.

ERROR 1040 (08004): Too many connections

Solution :

The issue is due to the maximum mysql connections set on the configuration file. You can change it on the my.cnf file like pasted below.

1. Open the file /etc/my.cnf and the following line.

max-connections=500

2.Restart the mysql service.

3. Try to load the website now and increase the value if the issue still persist.

That’s all….!!!!
