Hi Team,
We are getting below error even though total connection in the database
(select count(*) from pg_stat_activity;) is not more than 10 and
max_connections are allowed 300. We are seeing below error most of the time
and only sometime it is impacting our application. Please let me know what
might be the issue?

Not likely to be a bug. The issue is you've hit the max connections allowed for non-superuser connections. You can inspect log files (possibly after changing log settings) or plug in some active poll-based monitoring to discover exactly how that is happening.
Follow-on questions or help is more appropriately directed to the -general email list and not the bug reporting forum.
