    Hi All,

    After listening to music from Shoutcast.com for a couple of years, I tried to update my Winamp program and the requests for music were rejected. The rejection:

    Unable to connect to Shoutcast DB server
    MySQL Error: 1040 Too many connections
    Session halted.​

    Google has many variations for the Error but I could not find any solutions there or on this Forum. I also removed the old Winamp and downloaded the updated one -- twice, with the same results. Unless someone can provide a solution to this problem it would appear my next step will be a system restore. Your suggestions, please. Thank you.

    It is not your problem, the server you are connecting to is maxed out on the number of connections it can offer!

    Arie,

    Since this was the first time that I had encountered the MySQL error after using Shoutcast over a long time on a daily basis, I assumed that the upgraded Winamp was the cause. Your reply prompted me to be more persistent. Several more attempts and I finally connected and all is well. Thank you for the helpful response.
