Some adjustments have been made at the datacentre this morning on our server configuration, these changes may or may not help reduce the number of database connection errors. Will see anyway, as always errors can be reported on the Forum Support board:

The error message at about 20.38pm
Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later

Did that outage last very long?

Another glitch this evening......

21.41  Previewed a post and got "Fetching preview" for several minutes then..
21.44  A white page with "Connection problems.........try again later"
21.47 Able to get back on to the forum and went to report the problem
21.48 The white page with "Connection problems........try again later"
21.50 Able to get back on and trying to report the problem again
21.52 Trying to post this report....We'll see what happens
21.54 White page again. I'll give it another try
21.57 Giving it another try...

Edit....At the last attempt the whole page froze up, the "Post" button didn't work but, as I was adding another line to the report, it sent the page without the last line.

Couldn't even get on during the early hours this morning.

Hopefully the server was down for maintenance to address the "Connection problems". Everything fine at the moment but only time will tell.

Other than the internal server error on Saturday (which wasn't COL related) have there been any of the other unable to connect to database errors this week so far?

There have been a few times when there's been a delay of several seconds before a page loads but so far there have been no more of the "Connection problem" messages here.
