A few of my sites are down and all with the same error: "The****MySQL****server****is****currently****offline Error while connecting to MySQL: Cpanel::DBI::Mysql connect('','root',...) failed: Too many connections at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/MysqlUtils/Connect.pm line 156. Error while connecting to MySQL: Cpanel::DBI::Mysql connect('','root',...) failed: Too many connections at /usr/local/cpanel/Cpanel/MysqlUtils/Connect.pm line 156." I have access to WHM, but know nothing about MySQL or what this means. Does anyone have any ideas?

  Hello, Since your access level is seen as website owner, you might need to ask your hosting provider to check this for you. You will need root password to find/fix the issue with MySQL being down.

  Hello :) Do you have root access to WHM or are you a reseller? If you have root access, please post the output from the following command:
  cat /etc/my.cnf
  Thank you.
