Support » Fixing WordPress » MySQL database at max 150Mb, but WP tables only 6Mb

  • A client’s website recently went down – database connection error. On looking at control panel, database registering 100% usage (150Mb), and I couldn’t connect using PHPMyAdmin as ‘too many connections’.

    Fasthosts.co.uk support allowed me additional space to open up PHPMyAdmin to investigate, but tables only showing 6Mb space being used. This is a smallish site (approx 100 pages/posts) – no comments (although there was formerly a blog and comments on there, but recently moved to a different site). Plugins are pretty lite and standard (for other sites I’ve built).

    Fasthosts.co.uk support unhelpful in suggesting how/where to investigate – just keep repeating to me that their 100% usage readings are correct, and that I should try deletigng stuff… anyone have any suggestions of why there is an issue, and where I can look. Might just deleting then reintalling be an option?
