Too many connections - Error - MariaDB/MySQL

Created by Tyler Smith, Modified on Mon, 14 Jul at 3:16 PM by Tyler Smith

Edit MariaDB/MySQL configuration file (my.cnf) and either modify or add the following lines:

max_connections = 1024

Once updated, restart the MySQL server and confirm the max connections value has been updated by running the following query:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'max_connections';
