dgraydesign – I just want to thank you very much for posting your solution. I just upgraded to 3.1.1 and got the same error message wherever someone left a comment. I followed the instructions you posted and it solved the problem. ??

Couldn’t have done it without your help! Kudos! ??

Okay, I got it working KeesieMeijer!

I tried replacing my theme’s comment.php with TwentyTen’s *after* replacing wp-admin and wp-includes, and it works like a charm! Now I just have to streamline it a bit to look a bit better with my theme – but now it’s working.

Thank so much for your suggestions. I really appreciat all your help on this. ??

Just replaced wp-admin and wp-includes via FTP with a fresh WP download. Still getting the “404 Not Found” problem.

Guess that confirms it’s my theme. :-/

Well I really appreciate all your suggestions. ??
I’ll keep looking. Thanks!

Yes, I re-saved the permalink structure.

I use an FTP client (FileZilla) to access my files. I have “force showing hidden files” checked, and still do not see the .htaccess file in my wp directory. So it must not exist.

Still getting the “404 Not Found” error page after a comment is submitting. Continuing to compare the comments.php file with the TwentyTen comments.php – they’re quite different.

Here’s my function.php — I’ve added the function from the pastebin. You can see if it’s in the right spot.

A few other things…
– my permalink structure is already set to the default structure
– I’m not seeing an .htaccess file in my main wp folder

Does it matter where you put your pastebin in the functions.php?

I tried it again several times last night and am still getting the comments-template.php error where the comment text should be.

I’ll try what you’ve suggested…

Oh goodness! Do get some sleep!
I don’t expect you to work on this, but it’s very kind of you to offer.

I’m going to keep looking a bit (it’s only 10:30pm here). I’ll post anything I find out.

Thanks so much! ??

Sorry I meant to say that the error I’m getting now is no longer the comment-template.php error, but this:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator to inform of the time the error occurred and of anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Yes, I did… same error, I’m afraid.

This is line 1333 in comment-template.php, by the way, if you’re curious:

call_user_func($args[‘callback’], $comment, $args, $depth);

Ah neat! My hubby is Dutch (from ‘s-Hertogenbosch) and I lived in The Netherlands for 3 years. ??

I will definitely take a look at that link – thank you!

I’ve already tried replacing my comments.php with TwentyTen’s, and where the comment’s supposed to be, there’s an error message like this:

Warning: call_user_func(twentyten_comment) [function.call-user-func]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback in C:\http\vhosts\mydomain.com\httpdocs\wp\wp-includes\comment-template.php on line 1333

Tried checking out line 1333 in comment-template.php and I couldn’t see what the problem was.

by the way… is your nickname Dutch? ??

Hehe, doing that now. Thanks! ??
