Bibtex references wont work

Post by h0ps »

Hi guys

I can't seem to get my bibtex citations to work. When I run my project I get a "author undefined"-warning. I guess it is because I have to do "latex-bibtex-latex-latex", but I don't know how to do this from texniccenter.

Thx in advance

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

In the TeXnicCenter build settings, i.e. in the output profile, make sure that "Do not use BibTeX" is not enabled:

The screenshot is from the TeXnicCenter configuration page, perhaps have also a look there.

Yes I have. It seems like natbib is causing trouble. When I remove to use this package there are no problems.

Who should guess that. ;-)
Perhaps provide a Infominimal working example with a BibTeX entry which shows the problem, so we could test and help to fix it.

For some reason it works now. Unfortunately I don't know why. Thx for answering.
