Exported .pdf not showing references

Post by Feuerdrache »

Hello everyone,

I have used lyX for about a year now, and tried for the first time to "professionally" import references into the .lyX document by following this instruction, but after looking for a solution for several hours yesterday and today, I can't seem to find anything that solves it. From what I read the .lyX doesn't seem find the .bib file somehow, as nothing shows up in the .pdf file.

I'm using lyX 2.1 and JabRef 2.10 on Windows 8.

The preamble looks as following:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{xfrac}
\usepackage[per=frac,loctolang={DE:german}]{siunitx}
\sisetup{locale=DE}
\DeclareSIUnit\calorie{cal}

\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{ae}

\usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{C:/Users/Sascha/Desktop/IndustriepraktikumGrundpraxis.bib}
\usepackage{breakurl}
\usepackage{booktabs}

\usepackage{caption}
\captionsetup{format=hang, labelfont=bf, skip=1 pt}

\usepackage{tabularx}

\usepackage[version=3]{mhchem}
The commands have been integrated in lyX as follows (Gruenling is just a random example):
lyX.PNG
lyX.PNG (2.68 KiB) Viewed 1646 times
In the final .pdf only this shows up:
lyX2.PNG
lyX2.PNG (5.79 KiB) Viewed 1645 times

Kind regards,
Sascha

Welcome,

you are using biblatex, you have to do some special stuff to get LyX to use the right modules as described in the LyX wiki. Alternatively: biblatex und biber mit LyX.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
