When browsing the site on IE tonight (01/02/03; approx. 10 PM) I received this 'database error' several times. I hate browsing the Web on AOL, so I'm wondering if it's a GTP problem or if there's something I have to do.
Put simply, it means that there are more poeple accessing data from the MySQL database than it can handle with current settings. I get reports from each one of these errors, and I'm working to change our settings a bit so it will stop.
Those of you who haven't gotten it are just lucky - no matter what browser you are using, you will still see that error as it is dependent on the server load, which affects everyone.
