Google Analytics Event Tracking with /__utm.gif

I use this URL to report an event to google-analytics:

http://www.google-analytics.com/__utm.gif?utmac=UA-12345678-9&utmcc=&utmcs=UTF-8&utmhn=www.example.com&utmwv=4.8.1&utmr=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example.coml%2Freferer&utmt=event&utme=5(Out*action*label)(1)

In Analytics, I definied a goal like:

Goal Name: Out
Goal Type: Event
Goal Details: 
Categorie is euql to: Out
Action: [no selection]
Label: [no selection]
Value: [no selection]
Goal Value: Use the actual event value

But: No goals arrive in Analytics. What could be wrong?

Check out https://developers.google.com/analytics/resources/articles/gaTrackingTroubleshooting#basicDebugging where it says:

3. Ensure that the utmp parameter is present.
4. Ensure that the utmcc parameter is present and non-empty.
   In the case of an empty utmcc parameter, no cookie data is sent, and the request is ignored.

It looks like your request does not do either of those.
