I have checked the similar question available, still could not fix my problem.
I used a tex template from my classmate who is using Winedt. For my part, I am using MacBook. When I compile it with an updated bib file in the terminal using xelatex -> biber -> xelatex -> xelatex, it can not update the bbl file. Must I generate a bbl file using bib file by hand?
Here is the tex file:
\documentclass[
degree = phd, %
]{njuthesis}
\njusetup{
bib = {
resource = {sample.bib},
option = {
gbnamefmt = lowercase,
backend=biber
}
}
}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{listings} %
\begin{document}
sample~\cite{Dine1993}
\tableofcontents
\printbibliography
\end{document}
Here are the compile commands:
xelatex sample.tex
biber sample
xelatex sample.tex
xelatex sample.tex
By this latexsample, you can repeat the problem as I said.
The class is available on CTAN.
And when I compile the tex file, it always remind me:
Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:
(biblatex) sample
(biblatex) and rerun LaTeX afterwards.
)
Output written on sample.pdf (3 pages).

Unless there are known issues with the CTAN version, I strongly recommend you get rid of your local version of the class and use the version provided by your TeX distribution. The CTAN version complained about! LaTeX Error: Key 'nju/degree' accepts only a fixed set of choices.and I didn't have the required fonts installed, so I didn't manage to run the example. Anyway, I'm guessing the code is OK and your problems lie elsewhere. ... – moewe Feb 17 '23 at 06:14.blgfile to find out if Biber complains about anything. – moewe Feb 17 '23 at 06:14.blgfile of the Biber run with us.
