Hello to everybody,

i get the following error, but can't fix it. For troubleshooting I already checked whether there was a missing {.

I suspect you have forgotten a `}', causing me
to read past where you wanted me to stop.
I'll try to recover; but if the error is serious,
you'd better type `E' or `X' now and fix your file.

Hi Johanna,

welcome to the forum!

Did you get the error with exactly this code (\include commented out)? Or just with your original file? Perhaps compile your example above again to test. I guess the error is not there, because I did not get any error when compiling, except that I don't have the biblatex style numeric-omp.

You could also post your complete .log file as attachment, if you like.

Stefan

Hello Stefan,

thanks for your interest and your help! Here is the log...

Hope the error is easy to fix!

[Stefan Kottwitz]

The relevant part of your .log file is:

Code: Select all

("F:\2014-06-06 DrArbeitssicherung\LATEX\Latex\NeuerOrdner\Gesamtdokument.bbl")
Runaway argument?
{Low molecular weight chitosans (LMWC) of different molecular weight \ETC.

So the problem seems to be in your bibtex file.

Btw. I see that you are writing in German - you could also post this (and any other question) to our German partner site TeXwelt.de, it may be easier to discuss in native language. I'm hosting that site on the same server. We gladly welcome any LaTeX related question there.

Best regards, and greetings from Hamburg,

Stefan

Hello Stefan,

thank you for working very fast and focused!

I solved the problem by deleting the aux-files AND the toc, lof, lot, bbl, bcf.

In the past, I was used to deleting just the aux-files. Anyway, after screening more than 7000 lines of my bibtex resource for a missing brace, I dared to delete these files!

THANKS
