I have had that probelm before. What caused it for me was that my .bib file
had been corrupted. Open it in a text editor and see if there are any
brackets missing at the end of it. Or alternatively try and use one of the
backed up .bib files. I seem to get a .bib.~n~ (where n is a number) backup
file each time I change my file.
I hope thats of some help
