We have almost 60 network guys working via a proxy server, developing on one Linux-based in-house server.

Suddenly, it is saying to everyone:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: 
Too many connections in XXXXXXXX FILE NAMES

We have cleared tmp folders as well, but after restarting we face the same issue.

What is the solution to this error?

  • Can you log into MySQL and run 'SHOW PROCESSLIST'? That should get you started figuring out what's using all the connections. – James L Aug 31 '12 at 7:07
  • I added max_connections=5000 max_user_connections=500 But it did not resolve this issue :( – Umer Aug 31 '12 at 7:09
  • SHOW PROCESSLIST is showing nothing – Umer Aug 31 '12 at 7:21
  • Connection for controluser as defined in your configuration failed. – Umer Aug 31 '12 at 7:27
  • Did you restart your server process or something? – dezso Aug 31 '12 at 8:09

SET @@GLOBAL.wait_timeout = 30;

Have your users disconnect when they are through.

Do not have more than 20 for MaxClients in Apache.
