Texmaker and TeXstudio ⇒ No Auxiliary Files Created - Texmaker

[cb396]

Hi there,

I've been writing a thesis for months now with no problems in packages, bibtex or anything. Yesterday I tried saving my document under a new name and compiling it. No auxiliary files were created (no .aux, .blg, .bbl, .toc, .lof, .lot, .log, etc.). I have tried creating a test file to see if I could figure out where the issue started with something like:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}

this is a test.\cite{test}

\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{testbib}

\end{document}

This test file didn't even work. It creates a PDF but no link to the bibtex citation or creation of auxiliary files. I have been using PdfLaTeX + Bib(la)tex + PdfLaTeX(2x) + View PDF as my quick build command and it had been working until now. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both MiKTex and Texmaker, reinstalled all my packages and checked that things are in the correct directories. I don't know what is preventing the creation of the auxiliary files and can't seem to find an answer online that works in this instance.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Colm
