[campsite-support] Site Down: Could not make Data-connection

    Hi everyone,

    My site is down with the following error:

    "Could not make Data-connection"

    Version: Campsite 2.7.0-rc4 "Tomas"

    The administrative interface /admin is up and running. One can edit and save new articles without problem. But when publishing them the entire site reports: Could not make Data-connection.

    MySQL is running and I have increased the max-connections parameter but the error persists.

    If you google the exact phrase will find several sites crawled at the time they were experimenting the problem, including ours.

    Any help is welcome.

    Regards,

    VEDAX

    Dear Vedax,

    We had this problem before with few websites we designed. After lot of searching and debugging it turns out that we didn't close the database connections we created with PHP thus the server was filling up with open connections and resulted in the Could not make Data-connection error.

    So if you use PHP and do you own query to the database, make sure that you close the connections.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Hi,


    seems you use the phpwrapper? Normally this error appears when the server
    cannot resolve it's own name. But if you are running an server which have
    DNS entry, this should not happen.
    Please provide me with some more information. Did not found it using google,
    which address you are talking about?

    Best Regards,
    Sebastian
