I'm discovering biblatex and i have a few problem or misunderstanding.
I'm actually working with TeX Studio and when i'm trying to run the bibliography, I have the following message:

This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2015/W32TeX)
The top-level auxiliary file: rapport.aux
I found no \citation commands---while reading file rapport.aux
I found no \bibdata command---while reading file rapport.aux
I found no \bibstyle command---while reading file rapport.aux
(There were 3 error messages)

The thing is I trying a lot of different solutions shown in different topics and no one had the correct solution to my problem...

Here is my code: 

  \documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{report}


\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage[francais]{babel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  
\usepackage{enumerate}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{mathrsfs}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{caption}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage[section]{placeins}
\usepackage{verbatim}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage[final]{pdfpages} 
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[final]{pdfpages}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{circuitikz}
\usepackage{pstricks,pst-plot,pstricks-add}
\usepackage{geometry}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{sectsty}
\usepackage{biblatex}
\usepackage{filecontents}



 \begin{filecontents*}{rapport.bib}
    @online{cim-wiki,
        author = {Wikipedia},
        title = {Common Information Model (electricity)},
        date = {11.04.2016},
        url =    {https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Information_Model_(electricity)},
    }
    \end{filecontents*}


   \bibliography{rapport}
   \chapter{Bibliographie}

   \printbibliography
   \end{document}

new version of the code:

   \documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{report}


       \usepackage{geometry}
    \usepackage[francais]{babel}
    \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
    \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  
    \usepackage{enumerate}
    \usepackage{amsmath}
    \usepackage{amssymb}
    \usepackage{mathrsfs}
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    \usepackage{caption}
       \usepackage{subcaption}
    \usepackage[section]{placeins}
    \usepackage{verbatim}
    \usepackage{array}
    \usepackage{multirow}
    \usepackage{multicol}
    \usepackage[final]{pdfpages} 
    \usepackage{siunitx}
       \usepackage{csquotes}
       \usepackage[final]{pdfpages}
       \usepackage{float}
       \usepackage{circuitikz}
       \usepackage{pstricks,pst-plot,pstricks-add}
       \usepackage{geometry}
       \usepackage{titlesec}
       \usepackage{xcolor}
       \usepackage{sectsty}
    \usepackage[style=authoryear,backend=biber]{biblatex}
    \usepackage{filecontents}


   \bibliography{rapport}
\begin{document}
 \chapter{Bibliographie}
 \nocite{cim-wiki}
 \printbibliography

 \end{document}

with the following bib file:

 @online{cim-wiki,
    ALTauthor = {Wikipedia},
    ALTeditor = {editor},
    title = {Common Information Model (electricity)},
    date = {4 February 2016, at 04:26.},
    url = {https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Information_Model_(electricity)},
OPTurldate = {11/04/2016},
 }

    You need to run biber not bibtex. – Ulrike Fischer Apr 13 '16 at 08:08
  • You are probably running BibTeX when you should be running Biber, see Biblatex with Biber: Configuring my editor to avoid undefined citations. Check also Troubleshooting for biber and Question mark instead of citation number. – moewe Apr 13 '16 at 08:11
  • Thanks it has solve this first problem but the blibliography still does not show... I will had my code in question in my post above – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 08:35
  • It is unclear to me if you are using the filecontents environment in your real document (you should not) or if it is just for the example. http://golatex.de/wichtige-hinweise-erstellung-von-literaturverzeichnissen-t11964.html – Johannes_B Apr 13 '16 at 08:40
  • I actually tried both and neither of the solutions worked.. What happens is that he tell me that there is an option clash for package biblatex – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 08:45
  • Have you actually cited anything? Nothing is cited in this incomplete minimal example (there is no \begin{document} for example). Only things directly cited goes into the bibliography (unless you for example ask it to take everything from the .bib file. – daleif Apr 13 '16 at 08:52
  • Plus I'm not use if \bibliography{...} is the proper syntax for biblatex, that is a bibtex thing – daleif Apr 13 '16 at 08:53
  • no I did not cite anything yet, but how do I ask it to take everything from the bibfile? – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 08:53
  • \nocite{*} works with normal bibtex. – daleif Apr 13 '16 at 08:55
  • I actually modified \bibliography by changing it to \addbibresource and the first problem still remains...: "Option clash for package biblatex. \usepackage" – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 08:58
  • You can use \bibliography{file}, but \addbibresource{file.bib} is preferred. Note that both of those commands must be called in the preamble and not in the document. As others have already commented, in your document you don't cite anything and consequently won't see any output- – moewe Apr 13 '16 at 08:59

    Don;t load the package twice with different options, see my answer below – daleif Apr 13 '16 at 08:59
  • Indeed I missed this one^^ my bad – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 09:01
  • I do not understand I corrected all of it following your instruction it does not show any errors but still it does not show any bibliography – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 09:26
  • Can you update your post with the code you are trying to use now. Can you also show any errors and warnings you get in the .log and .blg files? – moewe Apr 13 '16 at 09:34
  • done this is the only thing in the log file : Biber reported the following issues(biblatex) with 'cim-wiki':(biblatex) - Datamodel: Entry 'cim-wiki' (rapport.bib): Invalid format '4 February 2016, at 04:26.' of date field 'date' - ignoring. – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 09:42
  • Yes, the date in the date field must be given in YYYY-MM-DD format. You also have no author for the entry. Except for the very bloated preamble, this looks fine and the warnings you report aren't that bad either. What is the output? – moewe Apr 13 '16 at 09:49
  • @moewe there is nothing in output, I mean for the bibliography, and there are no errors – Sven Glöyer Apr 13 '16 at 11:04
  • I can hardly believe that. If you have a \nocite and \printbibliography and you get no further error or warnings, you should also get an output. But since the problem seems solved anyway, it's probably not something we need to lose sleep over. – moewe Apr 13 '16 at 11:06

Here is a more minimal AND working example, using biber not bibtex

Note that biber complains about the format of the date, so you'll need to look that up in the biblatex manual.

You probably mean urldate not date, and then the syntax is YYYY-MM-DD, so

urldate = {2016-04-11},

in this case.

 \documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{report}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  
 \usepackage[style=authoryear]{biblatex}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage{filecontents}

\begin{filecontents*}{rapport.bib}
  @online{cim-wiki,
    author = {Wikipedia},
    title = {Common Information Model (electricity)},
    urldate = {2016-04-11},
    url =    {https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Information_Model_(electricity)},
  }
\end{filecontents*}


\bibliography{rapport}

\begin{document}

   \chapter{Bibliographie}

\cite{cim-wiki}

   \printbibliography
   \end{document}
