FW: I can't get my event handler to fire!

Searching the archives I found where to look in debug .. it appears that
Nagios thinks it's running my event handler. Macro expansion looks fine.
Problem is .. it's not actually running it! Still lost ...

Well, I added event_handler_enabled configuration and still I'm not
getting my event handler fired. I've tried both for the service (PING)
and for the host, individually and in combination. I don't see anything
in the debug logs that would indicate that an event handler should have
fired (even with the filter set to -1). The script is executable by the
nagios user (logged in as that user, execute same commandline as in
command def, no problem).

1. What/where should I be able to see in terms of event handlers firing
in the logs?

2. Are event handlers affected by notification settings (I'm assuming
not)?

3. What the heck am I doing wrong? This looks like it should be
straightforward!
