Referencing not working - probably very easy but I'm lost

Okay, I've made some progress.

Basically two things were happening. For some reason apacite is not working no matter what I do. Also, some of the examples I sent did have the references file as .tex, not .bib files. I apologize for the second thing. This was stupid by me and probably caused by ...

Referencing not working - probably very easy but I'm lost

Extra files attached (mentioned in previous message).

All the attached files (in this and the previous two messages) are all the files that are created on compiling the document in Texmaker.

Referencing not working - probably very easy but I'm lost

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for the reply.

For clarification, my two main files are test1.tex (the main document) and references.tex (my list of references - only 1). I am using MikTex with the Texmaker GUI. I have configured Texmaker to perform these steps: PdfLaTex > Bib(la)tex > PdfLaTex > View Pdf ...

Referencing not working - probably very easy but I'm lost

Okay, the plot thickens, again.

The test1 directory contains a references.tex file, whereas the similar file for my thesis is a .bib file. Now I'm very confused.

Neither want to print references and neither can get through the compiling procedure without having an issue with references (i.e ...

further to my message just sent

[quote]Hi Stefan,

Thank you very much for the reply.

Regarding the .aux file, I've now managed to attach this (see below). Not sure why I couldn't do this before.

Regarding the .bib file, I have no idea why this is not being created. Even when I compile the code ...

Here are the extra files mentioned in my previous message.

This forum won't let me upload the test1.aux file for some reason.

Referencing not working - probably very easy but I'm lost

Hi both,

Thank you both very much for the advice. I tried using this as the reference (in my references file)

@article{wombat,
author="wombat",
}

and it didn't work unfortunately.

I am attaching all the files you mentioned Stefan Kottwitz (here and in the next messages) (think there may be a ...

Can you mock up a different entry in the bib-database completely by hand (not copy/paste)?

I have not done this before.

Also, I attached the log file for my latex session in the last two messages ...
