Hello James,
thanks for your answer, but max_connections is set high enough (double the number of the currently used threads). I think the error would be "Too many connections", wouldn't it?
This error comes from LinuxThreads when pthread_create() fails for one reason or another. There could be several reasons - out of RAM, out of address space, low compiled max thread limit, library compatibility, or just a bug in LinuxThreads. If you are not using the official MySQL binary, try it. If you are, try compiling your own - sometimes the official binary does not quite get along with the local system libraries or configuration.
max_connections is just a sanity limit MySQL imposes on itself, and if the thread library does not cooperate, it may stop allowing new connections before reaching it.
