    Hi,

    Since last October I’ve been getting 1,000’s of HTTP 404 errors relating to comments/feed. Viewing the source of the homepage, I can see a ref. to /feed which exists, but also to comments/feed which doesn’t.

    <link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” title=”Luxury Castles | Castles To Rent | Luxury Houses For Hire | Manor Hire | Rental Accommodation » Feed” href=”http://thebeautifulhousecompany.com/feed/&#8221; />
    <link rel=”alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” title=”Luxury Castles | Castles To Rent | Luxury Houses For Hire | Manor Hire | Rental Accommodation » Comments Feed” href=”http://thebeautifulhousecompany.com/comments/feed/&#8221; />

    The log file contains lots of these:

    86.156.177.152 – – [05/Jan/2012:12:26:30 -0600] “GET /comments/feed/ HTTP/1.1” 404 1086 “-” “Apple-PubSub/65.28”
    (I think Apple-PubSub is the built in RSS-reader for Mac OS X?)

    and more recently

    91.125.123.240 – – [26/Feb/2012:22:07:12 -0600] “GET /comments/feed HTTP/1.1” 404 1085 “-” “Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; Media Center PC 6.0; InfoPath.2)”

    I don’t require the comments/feed functionality.

    What do I need to do to stop all these errors?

    Many Thanks

    Chris

    I have the same issue: 404 error /comments/feed/…
    Did you learn how to resolve the problem and can you share with me?

    Thanks

    This is night 2 and still my site is giving problems

    This is what is happening, i type in the web address http://www.technologytomakekidssmarter.com and the webpage appears, however, if i click on any thing within the site i received this error for example i click on a post,
    Not Found
    The requested URL /galaxy-android-tablet-doctor-prescribes/ was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an Error Document to handle the request, even when i click on word press admin, it give me this error as well.

    What i notice is that my site has been encountering a lot of problems such as lost of information or the design on hte site would just shrink and look ridiculous. I am assuming that it is being hack and this has happened on more that one occasion. Just two weeks ago i change the word press Theme and it noted that i now have php. What i also observed is that every time i click on a plugin in side of wp- admin it would give me this error too.

    Would you say it is because the website is in php?

    Hi,

    I thought I’d fixed it by adding the following to functions.php

    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘feed_links’ );
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘rsd_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘wlwmanifest_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘index_rel_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘parent_post_rel_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘start_post_rel_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘adjacent_posts_rel_link’);
    remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘wp_generator’);

    which seemed to stop the 404’s for a while …… but they’re occurring again now !!

    Anyone know why?

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Those remove_action should be fine and shouldn’t effect/cause 404 one way or the other.

    Have you tried the usual troubleshooting steps?

    – Deactivate all of your plugins
    – Switch to the Twenty Eleven theme

    and see if you can cause the 404 errors. Also a link to your site might help identify what’s going on.

    Hi Jan,

    The remove_action(s) did stop the 404’s occurring for comments/feed … for a few weeks.

    I had tried the usual remove plugins /2011 theme.

    I suppose I could create a comments/feed page to stop the 404’s ? but would rather disable it with wordpress functionality if possible.

    Thanks, Chris

    Just a thought …. I don’t allow comments on my posts (under the discussion tab in edit posts). Could that be why http://thebeautifulhousecompany.com/comments/feed/ doesn’t exist but http://thebeautifulhousecompany.com/feed/ does?
