Hi,

You probably ran out of file handles.

The available file handles can be increased by 
modifying the table_cache and max_connections
variables in my.cnf, eg. 

  set-variable = table_cache=3000

You might need to tinker with /proc/sys/fs/file-max
if you hit your operating system's hard limit.

regards,
Martin
