Hello there i cant add my bibliography to my file. I am using Texlive and Texmaker. In texmaker i switched the setting from the configuration of bibtex to biber %. I also updated biber via shell command tlgmr update biber. When i type biber test into the shell command i get the following error: PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> biber test INFO - This is Biber 2.19 INFO - Logfile is 'test.blg' ERROR - Cannot find 'test.bcf'! INFO - ERRORS: 1

My test.tex contains the following code:

\documentclass[a4paper, 12pt]{article}

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[english]{babel} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

\usepackage[backend=biber, style=numeric]{biblatex}

\addbibresource{literatur_BA.bib}

\bibliography{literatur_BA}

\begin{document}

\cite{Epoxidharze}

\printbibliogrpahy

test \end{document}

The \printbibliography command doesnt do anything. I can see the \cite in my pdf.

  • you should not call biber from C:\WINDOWS\system32. Switch to your document folder first.

    Double check that your configuration is as in tex.stackexchange.com/q/154751/35864. Biber should indeed be executed in the document folder and not in C:\WINDOWS\system32. If you say biber <filename> in C:\WINDOWS\system32, Biber will look for the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\<filename>.bcf, which is probably not there. It is a bit weird that Biber would be executed in that folder and pdfLaTeX in your standard document folder...
