DB Connection Issue

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi,

I am having some trouble with CI install connecting to the database. Seems like it is intermittently connecting. It will work for a few minutes and then give this error:

Code:

A Database Error Occurred

Unable to connect to your database server using the provided settings.

I have checked my database settings and they all look perfect. I also have the database set to autoload. I searched around the forums a little bit and was unable to find anything related to this issue.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Update:

Looks like I need to up my active connections amount a bit.

Code:

ERROR - 2009-02-16 10:40:51 --&gt; Severity: Warning  --&gt; mysql_pconnect() [<a href='function.mysql-pconnect'>function.mysql-pconnect</a>]: User xxxx has already more than 'max_user_connections' active connections /home/xxxx/public_html/system/database/drivers/mysql/mysql_driver.php 84
