    Server too busy

    I get a "server too busy, try again later message" and have no idea why?

    Where does one look to find out what the problem is ? I have at most 3 users at a time so I do not think thats were the problem is .

    I know in Admin there is a setting to chage for number of active connections (although I think that is set to 20) but since the server does not let me get in, is there any otehr way to change that setting ?

    Thanks,
    Olimpiu

    This is dependent on the entire server, not just your forums. I sugggest reseting these options to '0':

    Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Server Settings and Optimization Options -> Simultaneous Sessions Limit and *NIX Server Load Limit

        Admins are exempt from these settings. So if you are getting this error, then it means that your server really is too busy and you will need to contact your host about this.

          here's the link to my message board



          what I mean is that if you try this link you get the "server busy" message in vbulletin

          So, in this case I have not logged in a admin since there is no way to get to a login screen.

          Appreciate your help!

            You can login directly to the Admin CP.
