It seems no matter what site I link to, Serendipity fails to enter a trackback to that site. I always get the error 'No trackback URI found' even though the page contains a trackback URI. What exactly is Serendipity looking for? How do I troubleshoot this? Is there any logging that can be turned on?
I'm running Serendipity 1.0, PHP 5.1.4-pl0-gentoo, apache-1.3.34.
Trackback always seems to fail

Do you link to a s9y-blog, too?
The problem: When a blog has a text like "this is my trackback-uri" this is only for humans. Try to add this link in the trackback-plugin, it should work.
The other thing: There is a way to see the trackback-uri by a maschine. s9y can read thuch uri's - but many blogs out there do not have such a maschine-readable uri in the html-source-code; s9y has such a code:
It is a so-called RDF-information:

Ciao, Stephan
That's part of the problem. I have tried pasting that into the trackback plugin and it still doesn't work. It appears to load that page looking for the RDF info rather than using it to post a trackback.The problem: When a blog has a text like "this is my trackback-uri" this is only for humans.

hm,
a) try a link in the normal text-area to
http://mein-test.supersized.org/archive ... test3.html
b) and do in the trackback-field:
http://mein-test.supersized.org/comment ... ntry_id=29

The first one worked. Plugging the second one into the trackback plugin resulted in:
• Checking http://mein-test.supersized.org/comment ... ntry_id=29 for possible trackbacks...
• Trackback failed: No trackback-URI found.
