I'm quite new to Latex and I have just started writing my thesis in latex. However, I have this problem with reference management. The references are not appearing inside the document, instead we have question marks.
I have followed the instructions here and tried everything they mentioned.
I have included my .bib file at the right place and I have tried
PDFLatex > bibtex > PDFLatex > PDFLatex
When I run PDFLatex I get errors undefined references and when I run bibtex it is running fine. How can we fix this?
I'm using TexmMaker
on Ubuntu 18.0
This is my 'blg' file
This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2017/Debian)
Capacity: max_strings=100000, hash_size=100000, hash_prime=85009

\bibliography{yourbibfile}? – David Carlisle Jun 17 '21 at 07:37\includewe don't have and using a standard class. You'll see if the error arises from the macros loaded at the very beginning for instance. – NBur Jun 17 '21 at 08:36\begin{document} Blablabla said Nobody ~\cite{Febid1}.
