I think mysql defaults to 150 connections so unless you have set the variable max_connections to a lower figure this is surprising. Try typing mysql -uroot -p'whatever_password_is' and then at mysql> prompt type 'show processlist'. This will show number of active connections. To increase number of permitted connections you need to edit your mysql configuration file, normally in /etc/mysql/my.cnf and set max_connections to an appropriate value and then restart mysql ( shutdown ZM before doing this).
