This related to the mysql service available resources. Do you have any access to your server? If so, you have to increase the max user connections there, otherwise ask your hosting provider

Dear Nemo, 

i'm experiencing the same problem. What value of max user connections do you think is good for my site? I own a dedicated server and provider set me to 150.

Are there any persistent call in prestashop code, maybe in backoffice? I'm experiencing this error when i work a lot on BO.

Thanks in advance

Dave

Well there is no standard optimal value, just enough to bear all your connections You need to test it and see which value can be optimal
