Missing Citation Commands reported

Post by angelag »

Hi,

I'm currently finishing my thesis with LaTex (TexnicCenter) and BibBex, version 0.99d.
However, I get two times the exact same error:

Code: Select all

LaTex Warning: Empty bibliography on input line 83 
LaTex Warning: Empty bibliography on input line 83
Line 83:

Code: Select all

\MakeBibliography{Quellenverzeichnis}
The reference to the bib-file exists as well:

Code: Select all

\AddBibFile{literatur.bib}
Also the document appears fine to me. Every "\cite" is referenced and the bibliography is complete.

The .blg file says the following:

Code: Select all

I found no \citation commands---while reading file literatur.aux
I found no \bibdata command---while reading file literatur.aux
I found no \bibstyle command---while reading file literatur.aux
Citation commands like "\cite{Somebody12}" do exist, however I don't know what a "\bibdata" and "\bibstyle" command is since I'm using a template.


To sum it all up:
The document looks fine to me, every citation is working and all references exist as well. However since it's a big assignment I'm somehow worried that something's wrong with the document that I'm failing to see.
So please, if anybody has any idea why I'm getting those errors although everything appears to be fine, I would really appretiate!

Missing Citation Commands reported

You may be using a custom document class that defines new versions of these commands, but why aren't you using \bibliographystyle{Quellenverzeichnis} instead of \MakeBibliography{Quellenverzeichnis} and \bibliography{literatur} instead of \AddBibFile{literatur.bib}?

You should check the .log file for a more detailed list of problems, and check the .aux file if you're convinced the files are being included (you should see references to them if so). Without a Infominimal working example, I can't be of much more help.
