I run a site that gets a fair amount of traffic throughout the day. For days at a time the site runs smoothly, and then, at seemingly random intervals I get the mysql error "Too many connections". The only solution for this is to stop the mysql service and restart it. I changed the max_connections variable to allow for 300 connections instead of the default 100. When I view processes when the error occurs the process list is totally flooded with mysql processes.

I am using php to establish connections and using the mysql_connect() function, not mysql_pconnect. I used to use the pconnect function and it seemed to produce the Too many connections error more frequently. I'm at a bit of a loss with this, any tips on how to address this are greatly appreciated.

thanks,

Eben
