I have come across an unusual problem and found no answers after due diligence. I am using Biblatex and Biber but my citations are undefined. Things have worked fine in the past and only changes in content were made. My usual debugging process did not solve the problem. Also, not even the MWE in the following link works (let alone other MWE's found elsewhere):
Biblatex, Biber, and LaTeX: citations undefined
The MWE in the link above used to work fine. I used the debug process described at the bottom of the post in the link above. My .blg file shows nothing. The problem persists in both Sublime Text and TeXStudio, suggesting the problem is independent of editor. I think Biber may be corrupted, but not sure if that's possible or how it could happen. According to TeX Live Utility on Mac, "universal-darwin" and "x86_64-darwin" packages are both "Installed" for latexmk and biber.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
