Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).
– switching to the Twenty Ten theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
oops, too late Esmi beat me to it
Thanks so much for your suggestions. I’ll try it! 🙂
Hmm, tried posting a comment with all my plug-ins deactivated. Got the same error message. Out of interest, I hit “refresh”. I got the following error page:
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.
I’ll try the suggestion of switching to the other theme.
Okay… no error with the Twenty Ten theme activated. Hmm.
Then the problem is with your theme not being 3.1 ready.
Yeah… that must be it. 🙁
It was a theme I worked on from scratch. It’s not going to be fun to try and find out what the culprit in it is. But thanks so much for your suggestions!
Maybe compare your comments.php with twentyten’s comments.php
Hehe, doing that now. Thanks! 🙂
by the way… is your nickname Dutch? 🙂
Yes it is. you can try replacing your comments.php with the one from twentyten. but you have to have this function in your theme’s functions.php: http://wordpress.pastebin.com/uscKNNP3
This may break your site so backup your comments.php and functions.php
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.
This is line 1333 in comment-template.php, by the way, if you’re curious:
call_user_func($args[‘callback’], $comment, $args, $depth);
Did you put the function from the pastebin in your theme’s functions.php
Yes, I did… same error, I’m afraid.

Hi all,
Today I upgraded to WordPress 3.1. Everything seems to be working fine. However, one problem – the comments.
When anyone (including myself) submits a comment, they get a “Not Found: The requested document was not found on this server” error page. However, the comments are posted correctly.
Any idea what could be causing this or how to fix it? (I’m not using any comment-related plug-ins.)
