Post your trigger code...

hi
this is trigger code::
 
trigger test_createacc on Account (before insert) {
//account[] a=trigger.new;
 //myCreateAcc.mycreateacc();
account aa= new account(name='xxx', sla__c='gold', SLAExpirationDate__c=system.today(),Active__c='yes',SLASerialNumber__c='11');
insert aa;
}

Your Account trigger is creating a new Account, which is firing the Account trigger again. You're essentially in an infinite loop, and Apex kicks you out. I'm not sure what you're trying to do with your code, but if you have a trigger that is modifying the same object that you're triggering on, you have to be careful not to get into these kinds of loops.
