Hello people

I have my database up and running and it handles requests for opening connections with no problems
However, there are cases when the call to mysql_connect fails and the function returns false

This could be due to overload on the mysql server? I am getting ~500 sessions per hour in my site
if so, can I change its configuration?

What else could be causing this?

Have you ever managed to print out the mysql error message when the problem occurs?
