BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ No Bibliography and Citations shown

[kenneth86]

Hi,

I have searched help through much of the internet without getting my problem solved. I guess it's a common problem that new beginners encounters, but I have a deadline for my thesis which getting near.

As the title illuminates, I can not get any bibliography in the end of my thesis, nor any citation from the bibtex file is appearing in the text, only a "(?)" is shown where the citations was supposed to be. And yes, I have run latex multiple times, but nothing happens. However, I guess that an expert in latex will find the error in 2 sec.

Here is my thesis file:

All the names and folder names are correct. And here is the .bib file. I don' believe there are any mistakes in it. Anyway;

Thanks for any help

Hi,

besides LaTeX, run also BibTeX on the file, for example by typing

Code: Select all

bibtex documentname

on the command line or by using a feature of your editor for that.

Hi Stefan,

I've seen on several forums they are giving the same advise when users have the same problem as I do. However, I do not find out how to "run bibtex on the file". After I've got the output of my thesis, I can't type anything into the command line. I don't get a error message or anything, just simply a question mark where the citations is supposed to be, and the list of reference is not showing up in the end of my thesis. Is there any specific in my editor I should look for?
