EDIT: The cause for the problem described below was that the .bbl file was being emptied every time the document compiled.
I'm attempting to add my renamed bibliography as an unnumbered top-level (chapter) entry to the table of contents (TOC) in my document, but so far all of my attempts have been unsuccessful. Below is an MWE for my latest and tidiest attempt, plus the output. Does anyone know what my code is missing? I'm using MiKTeX 2.9, Biblatex 2.8, Biber 1.8, and I've made sure all my other packages are up to date as well. I'm using the pdflatex compiler.
Main document
\documentclass[bibliography=totoc]{scrreprt}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{test.bib}
\begin{document}
\tableofcontents
\chapter{Chapter}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet \cite{entry}.
\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc,title=References]
\end{document}
test.bib
@article{entry,
author = {John Doe},
journal = {TeX Monthly},
pages = {1----10},
title = {{How do I get this to work?}},
volume = {99},
year = {1234}
}
Output


I tried working around the problem by adding the line
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{References}
just after the printbibliography command, but this causes the TOC to reference the bibliography one page early. And besides, it is only a workaround, not a solution.
[bibliography=totoc]in the options of\documentclasswhen you writeheading=bibintocin\printbibliography. May be updating will help? – May 20 '14 at 00:16biblatex.sty 2013/11/25 v2.8a programmable bibliographies (PK/JW/AB) biblatex2.sty 2013/11/25 v2.8a programmable bibliographies (biber) (PK/JW/AB )and biber v 1.8. – May 20 '14 at 15:34
