SQL Connection failure (5)

Recently, I tried to reply in the "Shitting nipples, dick or otherwise" thread, and when I tried to upload a pic, I got an SQL Connection failure, and my picture didn't show up. I reloaded the page, and uploaded a different image, and got the same error. What does it mean?

I recently tried to post, not uploading a pic or anything, in another thread. Same problem. I'd like to know what's happening, too.

"Tonight we'll be rebooting all shared MySQL database machines (including yours) so that we may install a new kernel that will prevent some performance shortfalls. Downtime should be brief at approximately 5 minutes. The downtime window will occur between 9:00pm and 11:59pm PDT, today, Monday July 11th."

But that's like... three weeks ago. If you experience this again, please post the full error message in this thread (if possible. wakaba has sort of... short error messages :\).

I've been able to post since I last got that error. Perhaps it was a temporary hiccup?

Seems to be a problem with the software this site is based on. Also happens on 4chan occasionally.
