Since I have never received a pingback so far, I thought I might test it. As I have an account on wordpress.org (saphod.wordpress.com), I will write a post there linking to this one - hopefully, that works…

Damn! Pingback doesn’t seem to work… but trackback does. Why is that? Grrrrmmmmpphhh! Maybe you can help me out here and try to pingback me…

Thought it would be funny to see if there’ll be a pingback on Tim’s weblog, so here is a link to his latest post: www.engelhardt.be/24-hours-of-flickr. Hmmm… doesn’t seem to work on his blog, either…

I have switched to the default theme and tried to ping my blog here again, but still no pingback.. HELP!

I am freaking out here!
I have put a new post into the wordpress.org forum about this problem:
wordpress.org/support/topic/117221

OK, I finally found out how you can change the xmlrpc.php to log the XMLRPC-requests and how to put the log-file into the same directory instead of the directory above. I then tried another pingback from saphod.wordpress.com, but - and who wonders - it didn’t work out AND no log file was written… then I created an empty log file and did the whole procedure again, but that wouldn’t work out, either: the log file shows nothing!

This problem is resolved, see this post. I have deleted all referring posts from saphod.wordpress.com, but you can see the history on this screenshot.

Unlike the title might suggest, this is not a test track! I have closed comments and pings on this post, as the number of pingback testings on this one is increasing.
