No bibliography with JabRef visible ...

Post by medienfux »

Dear Forum...
I started writing my PHD in LATEX and so far so good ... managed to have a good start with texworks and the first pdflatex compilations run through very smoothly.

I made a main document and some sub documents. One of the sub documents contains the sources and \printbibliography. For building up the bibliography I use JabRef ...

I really tried to organize everything with care, but now I need to ask... how to make a bibliography appear in the pdf with splitted documents ... all the turorials I found were indoc explainations.

Please help me out of this ...

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Thank you ... i will work through this.

To clearify my question...
I have a maindocument --> root.tex
and some subdocuments --> chapter01.tex; chapter02.tex etc. resources.tex

in root.tex is written

Code: Select all

\usepackage[babel,german=guillemets]{csquotes}
\usepackage{biblatex}
\addbibresource{latexlit.bib}
in resources.tex is written

Code: Select all

\chapter{Quellenverzeichnisse}
\section{Literaturquellen}
\printbibliography
\section{Karten}
\section{Bildquellen}
I work with TexWorks, biber is implemented after this tutorial --> https://texwelt.de/wissen/fragen/1909/w ... ite=1#1953

and if I run latexpdf ... it goes through without any comment of problems. but there are no ressources shown in the document and there are no quotation marks in the document too.

Have you cited anything in your document?

Please run the minimal example from goLaTeX in the troubleshooting section. What do you get?

No bibliography with JabRef visible ...

Post by Johannes_B »

Look at the log file, there is something wrong in your document, which prevents LaTeX to finish successfully, resulting in biber choking later on.
Get rid of the errors.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Dear Johannes,
done, one } to much, maybe a leftover from my last experiments ... now latex runs through and the logfile looks ok for my knowledge.

... and! I run biber and latex now several times over the script ... i have it now! problem solved.

Thank you for your patience and help!
