Just a guess, but maybe this occurs while filling the connection pool
with connections at the very beginning.
Assume your connection pool manager was set up to open at least 100
connections. In case your SQL server at work doesn't allow that much
connection or some other clients are using some already you might
receive this error.
Maybe check with your admin at work how many simultanious connection
that sql db can serve. Maybe it's simply limited. You could also try to
open a few connections "manually" to find out when your db says "no
more".
