chapterbib | Problem with ToC

Post by dassybr »

Hi,

I think so far I have correctly used chapterbib since I had not problems compiling and getting the correct results. That was without adding \tableofcontents in the main file. Now when I do include it, it works fine when I have only one \include command in the main file. For any other additional \include file it gives me the following error message:
! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item.
I checked the second file, it is fine. I also experimented by only including the first file, that was ok. Including the first file twice gave me the same error message. How is that possible? It looks like chapterbib doesn't know how to handle the table of contents?

Thanks for any comments!

Could you provide an example of two files (or even one) that break things? I suspect you're doing something that is causing the problem, but without knowing what you are doing I can't be sure what it is.

Chapterbib does indeed know about the table of contents---I've used both in a very large document before without problems.
