# Comments STUCK – same comment in que

 * I have a major issue that the same comment keeps appearing in my inbound email,
   but the comment has no id to delete it.
 * Even if I enter a new comment, the old comment appears in the email notification.
   I have checked the database via my hosting and can not see this particular entry
   either to delete it from the database.
 * If I mark it as spam/approve or delete it as soon as I come back to the comments
   section this one post appears again. So nothing new is getting through at all.
 * So needless to say this is a little beyond frustrating…

 * Deactivate all the comment related plugins. Does the error persist?

 * yes, with no comment related plug-ins it still fails.
 * and every post has this at the bottom of the email

 * so there are no posts in the queue according to the system… and I have tried 
   entering posts via firefox (both as a moderator and not), ie and chrome… and 
   they are all the same…

   same domain, and to my gmail account… same email comes through every time.

 * Hmmm… all those zero IDs seem to signal there is something wrong with the comments
   table in the DB: it should increment automatically the ID #s but it doesn’t.
 * Unfortunately, I am not a coder, so I have no idea how to check the DB, but I
   remember similar issues with posts (having 0 ID) and the solution was to fix 
   the table’s characteristics.

 * Yes… had a look at the database dbWebAdmin and made comment_ID autoIndex again…(
   which for some reason it had decided to stop,….) and things seem to be back in
   order..
 * Solution was
    goto WebAdmin, database..
 * then the SQL was….
 * ALTER TABLE `wp_comments` CHANGE `comment_ID` `comment_ID` BIGINT( 20 ) UNSIGNED
   NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT
