Sounds like your MySQL server is unhappy. Is there anything interesting in
/var/lib/mysql/<hostname>.err ? Perhaps you've exceeded the maximum
connection count (I'm not sure if this would cause the symptoms you're
seeing, but it's possible)? If so, bump it up in /etc/my.cnf e.g.
"set-variable = max_connections=200". (assuming you have the resources to
support that of course)
