BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Bibtex-Problems

[devilswild]

Hey guys,

i just started to use Jabref and have some problems. I use texmaker under Ubuntu. So i first built a database, which i put into the folder of my latex file. I inserted

Code: Select all

\bibliographystyle{style}
\bibliography{FPQuellen}

right after my \usepackage part and before \begin{document}. In the latex file i used for example:

Code: Select all

\cite[Bla]{Born-Wolf1997}

And i set the compiler configuration to PDFLaTeX - BibTeX - PDFLaTeX

When i compile the file he tells me first Process exited with error(s).
But when i open the error-page he says "No Latex errors found".
And when i wanna see the Latex-Document, he just wrote: [?,Bla]

Where is the mistake?
Do i really need a style-file?

The \bibliography command has to be inserted at the place in the document body where the bibliography shall finally appear. Furthermore there are at least two more runs with PDFLaTeX necessary to get all references right.


Best regards and welcome to the board

Another question:
Does somebody whether there a bibstyle preferred, for a Master-Thesis in physics?

Depends on the requirements of your university. Inform yourself thoroughly of these requirements. If there are none, you're quite free in your choice. Bibliography styles can be translated quite easy by the biblatex package. For simple use with BibTeX you could try the natbib package.
