why can't I create comment using rules?

Question

Simple rule:

after update node: create new entity with type: "comment"

but after update node, nothing happens...

why that?

UPD, added screenshots of my rule:

UPD2: i can create node by creating entity, but not a comment o_O

UPD3: ok understand what is the problem: i called the content type(machine name) 'task' =)

UPD4: errors while updating node and creating comment: full error message: "Unable to get variable entity_created, it is not defined."

Because you did not save it.

Add action of Save Entity.

@OnengLar feel free to login to my test site dg2kz.ply.st/node/1 User: OnengLar Pass: OnengLar as you can see it works. So perhaps you have some custom or some other contrib module that is causing your problem. – No Sssweat Jan 19 '17 at 1:20

Too bad there is no downvote button for comments (I'd use it for your last comment) ... oh well ... PS: just thought of a new question: "What's the real purpose of that 'force saving immediately' (when must you use it, and when is there no need for it)?" ... – Pierre.Vriens Jan 19 '17 at 8:29
