! File ended while scanning use of \@citex.

Post by alexmesa »

Hello,

I have an error in my texmaker project.

as the subject describes, I have an error in my main file that contains all the other chapters which are documents themselves.

The error is:

! File ended while scanning use of \@citex.
<inserted text>
\par
l.95 \input{chapter-1}
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.

Below is the main file.

Hi Alessandro,
your example is everything else than minimal. This makes it almost impossible to help you. For example: I don't have your document .cls-file. Since I see no obvious typos in your code, though, I would assume that the problem actually could lie in the file chapter-1.tex.

Please post a real minimal working example and / or give the cls-file as well.

it is "tudelft-report.cls". This seems to be a custom document class of yours so I can't say where you put it. Use your search function of the file explorer if you don't remember.
