Undefined References remain

Post by dusadrian »

Hi,

I seem to have a weird problem, which should be simple enough but I don't seem to find a solution for.

Reproducible example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{article}

\begin{document}
\cite{Aiton1985} shows that...
\bibliography{test}
\end{document}
The database file "test.bib" resides in the same folder as the file "test.tex" above, and contains this single entry:

Code: Select all

@BOOK{Aiton1985,
  author = {Aiton, Eric J.},
  title = {Leibniz: a biography},
  year = {1985},
  address = {UK},
  publisher = {Hilger}
}
Upon processing, I get this:

Code: Select all

LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
Is this error reproducible on other computers? I'm using TeXShop under Mac OS (Lion), I guess these are important details.


Thanks in advance,
Adrian

And you have run BibTeX in between? In which way do you think is the typesetting engine responsible for the problem?

Indeed, you're absolutely right. And XeLaTeX solves all my other issues.


Thanks again,
