This is from my forum on MySQL08:

An error was encountered
Error: Unable to connect to MySQL server. MySQL reported: Out of memory; check if mysqld or some other process uses all available memory; if not, you may have to use 'ulimit' to allow mysqld to use more memory or you can add more swap space.

Can anyone help me figure out how to fix it or what has happened?

But more likely, the server hit a configuration limit caused by overall work load. If this happens, best get in touch with support over the chat, and ask for the admin to be alerted. Register a support ticket, so that the case gets logged.

Thanks for the help. The problem seems to have gone away, but next time I'll do that.
