well if server is busy nowt we can do, however need more info did this just happen randomly? did it happen if you made any changes in code? did you uninstall a mod? did you install a mod?

Providing the error with nothing else doesnt help us help you.

Just a rough shot in the dark here but i seen something similar to this before regarding an unsupported media file.

The error popped randomly, after sending this topic it got fixed, but then just now it started again.

server busy is a host issue, means the server you are on is getting alot of traffic, out of curiosity who is your host?

godaddy
I was expecting you said that. Well, it's godaddy, nothing much to say...

Find yourself a non-oversold host and this problem goes away.

yeh im with margarett, I had feeling you were going to say godaddy, godaddy is not as good as they like to claim they are, they are oversold and have many restrictions, that you dont know about, specially if your site begins to grow.  To be honest Yazar8, their is not much we can do for this as its a godaddy issue if they did not cram their servers with as many clients as they can then you wouldnt be getting this issue.  Best advice and support we can give is advise you move from godaddy, look at the hosts in paid hosting section, t hese hosts dont oversell, personally I use GC Solutions and have never had any issues, bit pricier but you pay for what you get and with GC you get ALOT.

Actually I don't think this is go-daddy related. The error only occurs sometimes and when I'm trying to view my PMs.

Kindred

And why would that mean that the issue is not related to the crappy host?

Please do not PM, IM or Email me with support questions.  You will get better and faster responses in the support boards.  Thank you.

Yazar8, we see this issue ALOT with godaddy and other similar hosts, we are 99% confident your host is a large part of the issue.
