Same problem here (with Feng Office Community Edition v1.6.2 on Linux). This message seems to pop up at random (sometimes it shows up, sometimes it doesn't).

Maybe this has something to do with shared hosting, but how do we know?

OK, I found an answer!

Try to desactivate persistent DB connections (in config/config.php set    DB_PERSIST to false).

It solved the problem for me: seems that Feng Office does not close connections correctly (it may also be a server configuration issue), so after a while I end up with too many connections open and FO does not want to open new ones.

Cheers,
