Hi all,

I run the plugin with default configuration.
When <cleanUp>false</cleanUp>, I realize that no files created by bibtex
are present.
Thus I think bibtex is not running at all.
This would explain why citations are not set.

Question: does anyone develop the plugin further?
I would need it.

Greetings,

Ernst

I am a step further now:
Debugging unveils:

[DEBUG] Running BibTeX on file readMe.tex
[DEBUG] Executing: bibtex /home/ernst/Software/target/m2latex/readMe.aux in: /home/ernst/Software/target/m2latex
[DEBUG] Output:

I couldn't open file name `/home/ernst/Software/target/m2latex/readMe.blg'
bibtex: Not writing to /home/ernst/Software/target/m2latex/readMe.blg (openout_any = p).


ok which means that the plugin does invoke bibtex but in a wrong way:

Executing bibtex readMe.aux in: /home/ernst/Software/target/m2latex would work.


But how to configure the plugin that it invokes bibtex that way??

If you still want to use maven to run latex consider using mathan-latex-maven-plugin instead. It needs almost no configuration - the bin directory of the LaTeX distribution on the PATH is sufficient.
