Why isn't there a number before the section name?

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}

\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\section}{\large\scshape}{\thesection}{1em}{}

\begin{document}

\renewcommand\abstractname{\normalfont\large\textsc{Abstract}}
\begin{abstract}
Some abstract
\end{abstract}

\renewcommand\contentsname{\centering\normalfont\large\textsc{Contents}}
\tableofcontents

\section{Some section}

\end{document}

Which section? This is the output. Are you referring to the Abstract and Contents sections? – Werner Feb 15 '18 at 21:20
Well, that is weird. I have no 1 before the section in the output. (The last 1 in your output) – Feb 15 '18 at 21:43
from the example as posted above or in your real document? – David Carlisle Feb 15 '18 at 21:43
The example above. Well, both... – Feb 15 '18 at 21:45
You probably need to update your tex system see https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/299969/titlesec-loss-of-section-numbering-with-the-new-update-2016-03-15/300259#300259 – David Carlisle Feb 15 '18 at 21:47
Is this possible with linux and an inallation via apt? – Feb 15 '18 at 21:49
well check your version for titlesec, the linked question says you need "issue has been solved with titlesec version 2.10.2 (released 2016/03/21)" and has a workaround if you do not want to update – David Carlisle Feb 15 '18 at 22:09
