1226,exceeded the 'max_user_connections' resource

My website comes out this error message, could anyone help me please? Thank you.

Same problem for me today and I didn't update the code recently...

Thanks for letting us know, and sorry for the slow response here on the forums -- we were communicating with people who saw this error over Twitter and email, but it looks like we dropped the ball on replying here.

One of our MySQL servers had a problem this morning. It looks like the early symptoms were that it was incorrectly reporting that people were using too many connections (or perhaps it was failing to automatically close old connections, which would lead to the same results). Our monitoring systems picked up the issue, and we sorted it out at around 10:30 UTC.
