I had the same issue when I was testing 6.2 which also happened in 6.1.1. What ended up being the issue for me is I was trying to edit a comment for a post that no longer existed, which resulted in the 'Invalid Post ID' error.

A similar existing Trac ticket explains the current shortcomings of the comments UI, which this appears to be related to. #52875

My conclusion is that this isn't necessarily a bug, but confusing choice in wording for the error message.

Welcome back to Trac, @wplmillet, and thank you for the report!

As mentioned during test triage, some other attendees were unable to reproduce the issue during the 6.2 release party (comment:2 notwithstanding), so hopefully we will see some additional reproduction results to this ticket. Please update the steps to test if there is anything missing.
