BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Bibliography

[DAfe]

Hi, I am currently sorting out my bibliography for my dissertation.

I have roughly 30 references, of which have all been cited in my thesis and are recognised in the document (as they are numbered and do not show (??) ) - however when it comes to creating the PDF only 18 of my 30 references are showing in the references\bibliography.

Please could someone help with this?

Thanks in Advance,
DA

Have a look if there are error messages in the *.blg file (this is the log file of either bibtex or biber) and if there are error messages or warnings in the *.log file.

I this does not help, you have to reduce your document to a minimal working example and show it. Otherwise we cannot help.

Hi,

Thanks for your response, I have opened the .log file and I can see this message,

the message is longer, however it has only generated some of my cited references in in my reference section.

Thanks,

Unfortunately this is not half of the information I've asked for. Nevertheless, the already tell us, that some of you references cannot be found. The reason can be, that you just have to run bibtex/biber (don't know, which is needed by you document, because the minimal working example I've asked for is still missing) or that there was an error while the bibtex/biber run (don't know this, because the *.blg file I've asked for is still missing).

Sorry for the insufficient help, but with insufficient information, I fight with blunt swords.

Hi,

Thanks for your response,

Have a look if there are error messages in the *.blg file (this is the log file of either bibtex or biber) and if there are error messages or warnings in the *.log file.

file:line:error style messages enabled.
./citation2 .bib:1: LaTeX Error: Missing \begin{document}.
./citation2 .bib:1: ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!

These are the messages of the log file of my bib document. Im not sure why there is an error of 'missing \begin{document}' as I have specified that in the preamble..

this is my preamble..

Unfortunately this in not a minimal working example, because essential files like citation2.bib are missing. The code is also not marked correctly as code. All other information I explicitly asked for is also still missing. I've now tried two times to get all relevant information. Sorry, but I unsubscribe this topic now. Too much already wasted time.
