<h2><strong>Max user connections</strong></h2>

<h3><br />
<strong>Shared hosting</strong></h3>

<p>HostGator allows a maximum of 25 simultaneous MySQL connections per cPanel.</p>

<p>If you exceed this limit, you will receive a <strong>max_user_connections</strong> error. Typically, either your site has too much traffic for the shared server, or your site may be under attack.</p>

<p>It is your responsibility to fix this by updating your web framework to the newest version, optimizing/indexing databases, or upgrading to a dedicated server. You may contact us via <a href="https://www.hostgator.com/contact" rel="noopener" target="_blank">phone</a> or <a href="https://www.hostgator.com/contact" rel="noopener" target="_blank">chat</a> to get a proper diagnosis and specific advice.</p>

<h3><br />
<strong>VPS and Dedicated hosting</strong></h3>

<p>If you are hosting on a VPS or a Dedicated server, you can change this value in <span style="color: #00ff00; background-color: #000000;"><samp>/etc/my.cnf</samp></span>.</p>

<hr />
<h2><br />
<strong>Too many connections</strong></h2>

<p>HostGator has a much larger total maximum number of simultaneous MySQL connections any server can handle.</p>

<p>If the server has reached the limit, you will receive a <strong>Too many connections</strong> error similar to the one below:</p>

<div class="alert alert-warning">Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Too many connections in /home/yoursite/public_html/includes/functions/database.php on line 42 Unable to connect to database server!</div>

<p>In this case, the server needs to be investigated by our server administrators. You may contact us via <a href="https://www.hostgator.com/contact" rel="noopener" target="_blank">phone</a> or <a href="https://www.hostgator.com/contact" rel="noopener" target="_blank">chat</a> to report this problem.</p>
