I am struggling with the Bibliography. I am writing my thesis and want to include a .bib but the thesis.tex file is creating a thesis.bbl file.

I do not understand the reason, i am useing \bibliography{./content/literatur} which refers to the literatur.bib file. Where is my mistake?

Thank your for your helps

    you have not shown any usable code but you need to run bibtex to generate the bibliography then pdflatex twice more to include it. – David Carlisle Apr 09 '22 at 09:38

  • As David says: You need to run BibTeX. https://tex.stackexchange.com/q/63852/35864 explains what BibTeX does and how it works in more detail. If you did run BibTeX, there should be a .blg file that reports any errors or warnings BibTeX encountered while compiling your document. (Windows may say that the .blg file is a "performance monitor file", but it is just a simple text file you can open with any text editor.) Show us the contents of the .blg file. – moewe Apr 09 '22 at 09:40

    If your main document is called thesis.tex, the expected output of the BibTeX run is in fact a thesis.bbl. So if you get that file, things might actually be running as intended. Note that BibTeX only adds entries to the bibliography that were \cited explicitly (or \nocited) in the document. If you have no citation, you will get an empty bibliography. (If you want to add all entries from your .bib file without citing them, say \nocite{*}.) – moewe Apr 09 '22 at 09:43
