few days ago I got this error




"MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue. SQL Error: 1040 - Too many connections Query: [READ] Unable to connect to MySQL server"


Later I contacted my host and they increased the no of
max_active_connection to 25


but what is the meaning of that setting ?? is that means only 25 users can log in to my site simultaneously???

I asked the same question from the host but they said "there is limit on a server to connect with mysql database to 25 from a same ip at a time"

so that 25 connections means 25 connections from a same ip at a time??


I want to know if they are lying or not ???
