Hello everyone.

My site is running very slowly and my hosting provider responded with the following message.


Hello,

Unfortunatly I don't know how to go about fixing this. My hosting provider has said they have restarted MySQL and that the site is fine. I had asked them to increase the max connection (which is currently set at 500) but they skirted the request. I also have my config.php file set to "0" for PERSISTENT CONNECTIONS.

I am getting the following errors sent to me by email:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL: SELECT value AS logtime FROM statistic_setting WHERE setting_for = 'logtime'
mysql error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)

mysql error number: 2002

Database error in vBulletin :

Link-ID == false, connect failed
mysql error:

mysql error number: 0

Any help would be greatly appreciative.

Thanks
