Suddenly, comments on my website don’t work anymore. When you try to post a comment, you get redirected to an empty page $website/wp-comments-post.php .
The problem seems to reside with Akismet:
– After deactivating all plugins except Akismet, the problem remained;
– After also deactivating Akismet, the problem disappeared.
– With Akismet re-activated, I switched to the standard Twenty Eleven theme, and the problem persisted.
I found a few old discussions about what seems to be a similar problem [1]; they all state that a blog on http://princeblog.net has a solution, but that blog does no longer exist.

Any ideas?
1. See for instance http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-comments-postphp-blank-page-broken-comment-ability and http://wordpress.org/support/topic/akismet-does-block-away-all-comments-on-posts-comments-on-pages-still-work , 4 years ago and 2 years ago respectively.
Edit: I use the most recent version of Akismet, 2.6.0.
