I keep getting this error:

Connection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

I am using Chrome and swapped from https and http and both still get that error. I wasn't sure if it would help or not. >.>

Ditto what Josi said. Also on Chrome. I got the same text:

"Connection Problems

Add me to that list. Took me four times to actually post this....

Switched to Firefox to see if it was Chrome exclusive but getting the same error on other browsers.

Same.  Trie mentioned it when I got home from the store, and it interrupted posting my eulogy for our just-departed rat McClane.

Firefox here, and it looks like its prolly safe to say its a site-wide issue from how many people are commenting.
O/O: I was going to make a barebones F-list as a rough summary, but then it logged me out and I lost my progress, so I made a VERY barebones F-list instead: Here.

Also receiving this message on Chrome.

come now, bite through these wires;
i'm a waking hell and the gods grow tired.

Seems to reconnect as soon as I hit refresh no matter what page I am on. Whatever it is the glitch is short lived, like a rash of sneezes.

Refresh does not work for me. Still tend to get the error more often than not. If I open a new tab and close the old one, I am less likely to receive the error, but it still occurs.

It does seem to still post my messages as well, even when the error pops up.

Xenphir

Sometimes it won't pop up, other times it will. Sometimes I only have to refresh once, other times I refresh Five or six times.

It also still sends my messages and posts through when it happens.

Josietta

Its starting to clear up on my end now. Hopefully its fixing itself or some such.

Same here. Maybe it really was just because too many people were on?

Apparently we ran out of connections. Holy carp.

Need to put some limits on things >_>

Error logs were the culprit... I thought I turned off E_STRICT et all but I guess I didn't, really : /

Is all good now.

*lots of hugs* Thank you O-amazing one. :D
