I was visiting a motorcycle forum and got this message

phpBB : Critical Error

Could not obtain ban information

DEBUG MODE

SQL Error : 1226 User 'crapmods_p_bb1' has exceeded the 'max_questions' resource (current value: 50000)

SELECT ban_ip, ban_userid, ban_email FROM phpbb_banlist WHERE ban_ip IN ('8b373448', '8b3734ff', '8b37ffff', '8bffffff') OR ban_userid = -1

Line : 160
File : sessions.php


What does it mean?

the forum was trying to load up its ban list, to compare ur ip with the banned ip's, and it looks like the code went over some max value.
im not sure what the 50000 corresponds with, its prolly a memory size.

Things like that happen from time to time. You may want to report it to that forum's admin if it happens again.

That's right. Inform the admin to make some changes:

To set up the extra usernames in the webhost, the most allowed.
To go into "sites" folder within the drupal directory and open up settings.php.
To locate the $db_url line and put in an array that replicates how the $db_url line is set.

Thats true, its because of updation. After few mins if you have tired it must have worked.
