RE: Bibtex Problem

It's a standard entry, and i already have a literature list added in the end of my document (that lists the other inserted citations beautifully) - is there maybe a database limit that lyx can handle?

Hi
I have been trying to get the bibtex referencing to work with a very
simple documents in Linux but my problems looks similar than described
here for the windows. Reference looks good when writing the text in Lyx,
but in the PDF document the references are replaced with [?].
I have myself tested both with the Mandriva 2007 and Debian Etch
(updated 2006.12.25 date) both using the Lyx 1.4.2

- master_thesis_ref.bib (created with gbib)

My ultimate goal is to use lyx for writing my master thesis in a way
where the text would only show the references number ([3], [21], ...) and
in the end of the document would be a list of all referenced material
(sorted by using authors last name as a key)
I have attached the example files within this document in tar.bz2 package.
(also available from
http://aragorn.kortex.jyu.fi:8080/lyx_bibtex_problem.tar.bz2)

As the error message states: you are using invalid white space in the argument
of the citation entry. Change the bibliography key from Embedded Systems
Architecture to EmbeddedSystemsArchitecture, and you're done (I'm actually
surprised that kbibtex lets you create such a key; pybliographer here

Not likely. LyX deliberately mangles path names to prevent spaces in
paths (on Windoze) from breaking things. There may be other reasons as
well for the mangling, but that's the one I know. The leading digit in
the file name has something to do, I think, with having multiple
documents open (or multiple parts of a document). I'm a bit fuzzy
there, but I've seen leading digits on my files with no harm done.
If you open the document in LyX, try to view it, and then (without
closing LyX) peek into the LyX temp directory, is
0_home_latex_bibfiles__refs_BibEdit_2.bib there? What about
0_home_arc_latex_bibfiles_neurosci_refs_BibEdit_2.bib? (Am I right that
you have listed two different bibliography files in your document?)
My initial guess would be that LyX failed to copy one or both
bibliography files over to the temp directory. I think that the symptom
in the DVI file (? where you expect a reference) can occur if the bib
files contain indigestible references (a misplaced brace or something),
but the couldn't open error sounds more like a missing file (or one
with a permissions problem).

Re: Bibtex problem
Howdy! I downloaded the apacite style fron CTAN and found a small but nasty buglet: When there are a couple of authors there is a colon too much in the citation before the '', e.g. (Hahlweg, Klann, Hank, 1992). Unfortunately the email that the authour gives in the manual isn't valid anymore . Is this something that I can correct myself easily? As far as I know, the '' should be preceded by a comma, so this is not a bug! I looked it up and you're right. So this is a problem only when I want to use this style for a german article. I hope I can fix it. Ragnar
Re: Bibtex problem
Thanks a lot! looking at format.names I got the idea that the colon
could simply
be defined in a variable that I didn't see before and I was right. So a
\renewcommand{\BCBL}{} in the preamble did the trick.

I think I am doing a stupid error in my bibtex files.
I cannot use crossref. Both from within Lyx and from running direct
LaTeX, the "missing" fields are not added -- regardless the style I use.
I followed the instructions given in the standard manuals regarding
order of entries.
Example (partially faked):
@InBook{Ludwig:Musik,
Author = {Ludwig, Friedrich},
Title = {Die geistliche nichtliturgische {M}usik},
Pages = {157-295},
crossref = {Adler:Handbuch},
}
I think that you need to use @InCollection instead of @InBook.

Re: BibTeX problem
Just making sure-- the item you are crossrefing must appear -after- the
crossrefing entry in your database file. Thus: your @book must appear after your
@inbook.

should be crossreferenced to:
@Book{Adler:Handbuch,
Author = {Adler, Guido},
Title = {Handbuch der {M}usikgeschichte},
Publisher = {Keller},
Address= {Berlin},
Note = {2 voll.},
booktitle = {Handbuch der {M}usikgeschichte},
year = 1930,
}
In the output, the booktitle (Handbuch der {M}usikgeschichte) is
missing.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
