# [Plugin: Jetpack by WordPress.com] Adding comment sends me to wp-comments-post.php 404 error

 * I’ve been searching around the forums for this one but nothing has fixed my problem.
   When someone tries to post a comment on my site, they get redirected to mysite.
   co.uk/wp-comments-post.php which isn’t found. I have tried updating the comments.
   php script by removing the form tag & contents and replacing it with <?php comment_form();?
   >. This hasn’t helped at all. In fact, I don’t even think jetpack uses the comments.
   php script as I’ve tried inputing test html text within the script and nothing
   comes up on my page. So I assume there’s some code within the iframe which is
   going wrong here?
 * Can anyone help please??

 * Check your WordPress install. In the root of the install, there should be a wp-
   comments-post.php file. Is there? If there is, check that it has permissions 
   to be run by the web server. If there is not, download a new copy of WordPress
   from WordPress.org and upload that file.

 * Why is this marked as resolved?
 * This 404 Jetpack Comments error only happens for me when Jetpack is connected
   to WordPress.com. If it is not, the 404 disappears, suggesting some coding error
   with a relative URL in the last update of the plugin, which was when this broke
   for me.
