Autocompleting \cite{} with emacs + auctex gives "cite: no such database entry"
- by Alejandro Weinstein
Hi:
I am running Emacs 23.1.1 and AucTeX 11.85 in an Ubuntu 8.10 machine. After opening a tex file, the first time I try to use the autocompletion of the \cite{} command, I get
"cite: info not available, use `C-c &' to get it."
in the minibuffer. After doing the 'C-c &', I get
"byte-code: No BibTeX entry with citation key".
Subsequent calls to \cite gives me the message
"cite: no such database entry" .
I have a \bibliography{library} in my tex file, and the \cite{} entries that I did manually work as expected.
I have the following in my .emacs
(require 'reftex)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'TeX-PDF-mode) ;turn on pdf-mode. AUCTeX
;will call pdflatex to
;compile instead of latex.
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'LaTeX-math-mode) ;turn on math-mode by
;default
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'reftex-mode) ;turn on REFTeX mode by
;default
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'flyspell-mode) ;turn on flyspell mode by
;default
(setq reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t)
(setq TeX-auto-save t)
(setq TeX-save-query nil)
(setq TeX-parse-self t)
(setq-default TeX-master nil)
I also tried the suggestions in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2699017/suggestion-for-cite-in-emacs-with-auctex, but it didn't work either.
Alejandro.
