Unfortunately this error doesn't give a whole lot of information, but we know it's not a table error or something like that.
vBulletin can't establish a connection to the database- is this happening every time? It sounds like you're saying it's intermittent... The latter being much harder to diagnose.
However since you mentioned you edited the php.ini file obviously the first place to start is to return it back the way it was and see if the problem goes away.
What type of hosting do you have? Shared/VPS/Dedicated?
