Over the course of the past three months, I have probably had the following error around 10-15 times:
"An Unexpected Database Error Has Occured. Please Check Back Later"
It is a white page with just that text along the top.
My other website linked to the same hosting account never loses downtime (it does not have a forum , is simply a splash page at the moment)
I talked with my webhost and a few times they said the server was taking on high volumes so that may have been the cause.
It just happened twice in about 30 minutes once it lasted for about 15 mins, the second time it lasted a minute or two... My webhost this time said he thinks I was reaching the set "25 process limit" and that this could have caused it (but they won't give a definite answer).
When I go to my cPanel it said there were about 5 process out of the 25 taking place. But they say that isn't reliable and usually 3 or 4 hours behind.
I can't be having this downtime, is it a server side issue or an issue with my XF database connection?
Would you suggest me going with VPS or Dedicated hosting (where there is no process limit) rather than Shared? Thanks!
