We've been getting SQL errors off and on today, and the forum seems a bit slow at times.
I suspect it's an issue with the host SQL server. It comes back after a few minutes, good for a couple hours, then folks lose it again.
The message seems to vary slightly as to what you are trying to do at the time. Wait a couple minutes, hit refresh and you'll probably get back in ok.
This is one error we see (another below):
