Latex Bibliography and citations

Question

Can anyone help me with the citations on my report? When the Latex compiles, the error message "no file pmrep.bbl" appears and the citations show up as '?' in the PDF viewer.

My bib file (nbsrep.bib):

\section{Blackboard Collaborate Report}

 \subsection{Introduction}
The University is currently struggling to fulfill the needs of teaching staff who require rooms to conduct their seminars, lectures, labs and workshops. With over 14,000 students currently enrolled in the university you can begin to understand, with a further 3,000 expected in the next few years \citep{uea2016, frankkeyes2015}. Likewise, in the UEA 2030 vision programme there are plans to demolish older buildings on campus which include; CD Annex, Blackdale and Congregation Hall \citep{clarke2016}. As a result teaching staff have voiced there concerns with one particular statement coming from the School of Biology who stated "it is putting a huge strain on teaching resources within the school' \citep{clarke2016}. 

The new technology that has been implemented is Blackboard Collaborate a simple, convenient and reliable online virtual classroom solution \citep{blackboard2016}. It allows organization such as UEA to deliver engagement to their students even though they are not in the same room \citep{blackboard2016}.  This new technology enables seminar groups to be delivered with students distributed in various areas such as; home, work or even in another country as long as they have internet connectivity. Currently the technology is not widely understood by the university teaching staff. Our project team was assembled to define, design, plan and deliver a Global Showcase Event that will powerfully demonstrate the new technology to the university teaching staff. Additionally, recruit staff ambassadors that will enable promotion within their respected university school. The reason behind the project team being formed was that ITCS currently have a heavy workload and cannot fully commit to promoting the technology this academic year.

Answer 1

In the following example, I'll use the article document class rather than the (proprietary?) nbsreport class you appear to be using. As you will see, the code does compile correctly when using the article class; if it does not compile when switching to the elusive nbsreport class, it just may be the case that the latter class suffers from one or more bugs.

The apalike bibliography style is one of the most ancient bibliography styles out there. As such, it is not programmed to recognize, let alone process, fields such as urldate. You should also encase URL strings in \url directives in order to let LaTeX find (more) suitable line break possibilities, if needed. Do also fix up syntax errors such as missing commas. Plus, do encase instances of "UAE" occurring in the title fields in curly braces so that they don't get converted to lower-case.
