[email]Anyone and everyone WE NEED HELP QUICK! We just were featured on the news for our website www.rentittoday.com I would ask you to check it out but our site is all of a sudden down. Does anyone have any suggesstions on the issue listed below? Can the CMS handle severe traffic all at once or is this more of a server isssue. Please help. 859-816-1656 or jglass@rentittoday.com Hello, Website Visitors!
We are temporarily experiencing high website traffic or technical difficulties. Please [url "javascript:addFavorite()"]bookmark this page[/#ee0000][/url] and come back later.

Do you run this website?
We were unable to connect to the database, possibly because:
  1. Your database settings are incorrect (check in /data/settings.dat.php)
  2. Your database server is down or overloaded (check with your host)


The database error given was:
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

Hi Jason,

I think we have this one fixed already but for anyone else reading usually "Can't connect to MySQL server" means either the mysql hostname is wrong or the database server is down (or crashed).

When the server is overloaded you usually get a different error "Too Many Connections".

In either case the solution is to call your host and have them fix it.

Hope that helps!
