I cannot get bibliography to work correctly on overleaf.com

Below a minimal case. The citation in the abstract instead of rendering as [1], renders as [bib:imdb], and I get an error in the log file: You have cited something which is not included in your bibliography

\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{biblatex}

\title{Title}
\author{Author}

\begin{document}

\begin{abstract}
Try citation \cite{bib:imdb}
\end{abstract}

\begin{thebibliography}{9}
\bibitem{bib:imdb} IMDB
\end{thebibliography}

\end{document}

    Your using a manual bibliography while also loafing the biblatex package. Those does not mix. Either outcomment biblatex or replace the thebibliography with something appropriate for biblatex – daleif Nov 11 '18 at 12:27

    thebibliography and the biblatex package are incompatible. You can either use thebibliography and retain full manual control over your bibliography output, or biblatex and get an automatic bibliography and citations.
