Re: [Bibdesk-users] LaTeX - preview with biber stopped working

2024-07-03 Thread Christiaan Hofman
There is also no log file from bibtex/biber (should be in bibpreview.blg). So 
it looks like fiber was not run at all. Are you sure the path to fiber is 
correct? Can you run biblatex+biber from the command line?

[Bibdesk-users] LaTeX - preview with biber stopped working

2024-07-03 Thread Bertolt Meyer
Dear fellow bibdesk users,

I found this preview template for generating APA7-style LaTeX previews in 
BibDesk which was working fine after I set the path to bibtex to 
/Library/TeX/texbin/biber and the BibTeX style to to „apa“ : 

https://github.com/nbrewk/biblatex-apa-preview-bibdesk/blob/master/previewtemplate.tex
 

However, it stopped working without me changing anything on my system (at least 
not that I am aware of). I am pasting the entire log below, but this seems to 
be the issue:

Package biblatex Info: Trying to load bibliographic data...
Package biblatex Info: ... file 'bibpreview.bbl' not found.
No file bibpreview.bbl.

Stackexchange tells me to to solve this by re-compiling, with obviously doesn’t 
work, or by deleting an old .bbl of the same name that was compiled with bibtex 
instead of biber. However, when I look in 
/var/folders/rd/njfhjmlx6wnbvgr0wl6zvv2hgn/T/bibdesk.BhHaP5/bibpreview, 
there is no .bbl there, just these: bibpreview.aux, bibpreview.bib, 
bibpreview.run.xml, bibpreview.bcf, bibpreview.log, bibpreview.tex

Any idea how I can get it back to work? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks & best greetings,
Bertolt
