THIS IS DRIVING ME NUTS!!
I currently can't connect to my database in SQL Server 2005 (enterprise) but as soon as I try to use any functions, I get cryptic errors found below. I am about to pull my hair out. Everything was working fine for around 4 days and now everything just blows up. I've tried using both sql authentification and also windows:

The error message suggests you to use Sp_configure to increase the number of connections.

If more users are connected to your sql server then this error will be raised. Please inform if my suggestion are useful
