Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ cannot generate the bibliography

[templateuser]

Hi,

thanks for the attention, and I have a problem when using this thesis template: after compiling the main file, the bibliography doesn't appear at all, and the quotations in the content appear like "[ ? ]""[ ?? ]". I didn't even make a change in the template.

What might cause the problem? Do I miss some packages?

I use Mac OS system and the corresponding TeXworks for Mac.

Regards, Paul

Hey Paul,

Did you run bibtex on the main.tex file? When you want to update the bibliography in LaTeX you need to run BibTeX as well as pdfLaTeX. Simply select BibTeX from the dropdown menu in TeXworks and run it, then compile again with pdfLaTeX and your bibliography/references will show up.

Cheers,
Vel

Hi Vel,

Thanks for your reply! It's the first time I use such kind of template and I didn't even know that I needed to run BibTeX first...

Everything's ok now. Thanks again!
