I would like to cite the references of a .bib file in my document. Could you please help me how to give the path to this file for BibTex (preferably without setting things in TeXnicCenter)?



My MWE is as follows. There are two files: test.tex in the current directory, and test.bib in the bib subdirectory of the current directory. The content of these files are the following:



test.tex:



documentclass[a4paper,reprint,aps,unsortedaddress]{revtex4}
usepackage[english]{babel}
usepackage{natbib}

begin{document}

cite{84ChHa}

bibliographystyle{abbrv}
bibliography{bib/test.bib}

end{document}


test.bib:



@Article{84ChHa,
author = {M S Child and L Halonen},
journal = {Adv. Chem. Phys.},
volume = {57},
title = {Overtone frequencies and intensities in the local mode picture},
year = {1984},
pages = {1-58}}


When trying to compile this file, I receive an error message



bibdata{bib/test.bib}: I'm skipping whatever remains of this command.


and a warning:



I didn't find a database entry for "84ChHa".

  • The argument to bibliography should be the file path without file extension. bibliography{bib/test} should work. (On some systems things may still work even if the extension is erroneously included, but that can not be guaranteed) If it does not work BibTeX should complain about that in the .blg file. Please upload the .blg file.

  • @moewe Oh, it works. However, if I have more than one bib files separated by commas (in the same directory), I get a message Whitespace in argument.

  • You can't have spaces in file names. I think that BibTeX doesn't even like spaces around commas. So try bibliography{file1,file2} and not bibliography{file1, file2}.

  • Show the used code bibliography{... with more than one bib file. Omit spaces in filenames ...
