I was trying to post a message on my forum and ended up getting a blank page with this message:

 

Connection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

 

What would cause this to happen? I haven't used up my bandwidth. What else would cause it?

It basically means that the database was down at the moment which needs to be "alive" for people to be able to post in the forum. Maybe the server was rebooting or anything.

 

Is all well now with the forum or is it still down, if the latter you should submit a ticket and ask the techs to look into it.
