Troubles using koma-moderncv [closed]

Question

I am some trouble writing a CV using koma-moderncv package. I am running MikTex 2.9 with TexnicCenter RC 1. I have installed the package via the package manager that comes along with MikTex. After doing this I downloaded and opened the example provided at http://ctan.org/pkg/koma-moderncvclassic. With the exception that I modified the options of babel and csquotes I have touched nothing. Never the less I get the following warnings when compiling:

LaTeX Warning: Reference `lastpage' on page 1 undefined on input line 138.

LaTeX Warning: Reference `lastpage' on page 2 undefined on input line 148.

Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:
(biblatex)                cvbasic
(biblatex)                and rerun LaTeX afterwards.

The result seems to be that I don't get the correct page-numbering. I am running pdflatex, bibtex, pdflatex, pdflatex. In the bibtex step I get the errors I found no \citation commands---while reading..., I found no \bibdata commands---while reading... and I found no \bibstyle commands---while reading...

Has anyone experienced similar problems and what was the solution?

Answer 1

It's very important to read the warning message carefully. In your case it's

Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:
(biblatex)                cvbasic
(biblatex)                and rerun LaTeX afterwards.

That means you have loaded the package biblatex with the option backend=biber.

So you have to compile with:

(pdf)latex
biber
(pdf)latex
(pdf)latex

instead of bibtex. If you want to compile with bibtex you must change the option backend to bibtex.
