    Hi there,
    I’m seeing the following error in my debug log:

    [19-Mar-2019 08:03:32 UTC] Error reading Wordfence Firewall config data, configuration file could be corrupted or inaccessible. Path: /wp-content/wflogs/config-transient.php

    I’m also seeing a huge amount of the following errors:

    [19-Mar-2019 08:43:30 UTC] PHP Warning: mysqli_real_connect(): (42000/1203): User xxxxxxxx already has more than ‘max_user_connections’ active connections in /wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1612

    Not sure if they’re connected, but if you have any suggestions on how I can fix the ‘Wordfence Firewall config data’ error please, that would be very much appreciated.

    Kind regards,
    JP

    Hi @japenz,

    This seems to be caused by your database’s allotted resources.

    Can you check your MySQL configuration file (/etc/my.cnf) for max_user_connections = ***?

    Alternatively, you can run this query to display the max_user_connections:

    SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'max_user_connections';

    If this number is not zero, can you set it to zero?

    Either edit the value found in my.cnf or run this query:

    SET GLOBAL max_user_connections = 0;

    Dave
