Bibliography Database File is not found

Post by puqq »

I cannot get my .bib file to work- it's simply not found. biblio.bib is normally located in the same folder as the .tex file, but \bibliography{biblio} or \bibliography{\Users\myuser\....\folder\biblio.bib} do not generate any references even though the \cite{} commands are definitely right. (question marks are placed instead of them)

I am running the latest version of MacTex on Snow Leo OS

Make sure that you run BibTeX (or Biber) in between. After that it requires at least two more LaTeX runs to get things right. If the *.bib file is actually not found, you should get an according message in the log file.
