Error codes - Database Errors email -

[OverallOpinion]

Good Morning folks,

Yesterday I had the highest number of people online on my forum - though it is still very new - the number was 59.

Although I had a few error codes emailed to me - I don't see any failures on the site, but would like you guys to take a look at them.

First Error.

*** I removed URL's and IP Address.

Anyway - I'm still very new to this and still trying to fine tune it.

I am using a linux GoDaddy server that has up until now seemed to be running flawlessly.

Like I said there is no real user end issues that I saw - though that doesn't mean they don't exist.

I will add though, the forum did all of a sudden take forever to load right around the time of these errors, not sure if this hiccup was related.

Thanks in advance!

They are all the same error code. It means the MySQL didn't respond to your query. It is usually caused by an overloaded server. If you're not using a GoDaddy VPS or Dedicated Server, you're sharing MySQL with hundreds if not thousands of other sites. If one takes up too many resources other sites will be affected. We have no control over this.

You can clear your system cache in the AdminCP under Maintenance -> Clear System Cache. This may provide some relief. It tends to be one of the largest tables and isn't cleared out as much as I would like.
