I have posted a question to tex.stackexchange.com on "How to get BibTeX to
work with Org mode LaTeX export?" Here is a link to it:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/114864/how-to-get-bibtex-to-work-with-org-mode-latex-export.
I thought this mailing list might be the best place to ask for help about
it. Thanks in advance for your time.
For ease of reference, here is the question again:
I am trying to get Emacs (24.3.1), Org-mode (8.0.3, from ELPA) and BibTeX
(from TeX Live 2012) to work together. I have followed the instructions
under the Bibliography section in
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html but after
exporting the document to LaTeX, compiling to PDF, and opening the result
(with key sequence C-c C-e l o in the latest Org mode) I see a question
mark instead of a citation (i.e., [?]) which means that the reference was
not resolved by LaTeX. In fact, checking the Org PDF LaTeX Output buffer, I
see the following warning:
LaTeX Warning: Citation `Tappert77' on page 3 undefined on input line 43.
No file org-bib-test.bbl.
[3] (.//org-bib-test.aux)
LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
It looked to me that probably Org-mode was looking for a .bib file with the
same base name as the .org file but renaming the .bib file and updating the
\bibliography line did not solve the problem.
Here are two minimal .org and .bib files that together can be used to
reproduce the behavior described above:
org-bib-test.org
* Tests
** Test1 slide
- This is test1 \cite{Tappert77}.
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{org-bib-test-refs}
The following, using #+LATEX_HEADER, gives the same result:
org-bib-test.org
#+LATEX_HEADER: \bibliographystyle{plain}
#+LATEX_HEADER: \bibliography{org-bib-test-refs}
* Tests
** Test1 slide
- This is test1 \cite{Tappert77}.
org-bib-test-refs.bib
@incollection {Tappert77,
AUTHOR = {Tappert, Fred D.},
TITLE = {The parabolic approximation method},
BOOKTITLE = {Wave propagation and underwater acoustics ({W}orkshop,
{M}ystic, {C}onn., 1974)},
PAGES = {224--287. Lecture Notes in Phys., Vol. 70},
PUBLISHER = {Springer},
ADDRESS = {Berlin},
YEAR = {1977},
MRCLASS = {76.41 (86.41)},
}
Currently I am using the following ugly hack to get the references
resolved: I generate the .bbl file from the .bib file (using a minimal .tex
file) and then I \include the resulting .bbl file directly in my .org file.
This is rather cumbersome and of course requires that I regenerate the .bbl
file every time I make a change to the .bib file. Although this process can
be automated in Emacs by writing a lisp function to encapsulate these
actions, I'd rather solve the problem than streamline a hack.
I have checked the .tex file generated by Org mode. It does have the
following necessary lines exported in it:
\bibliographystyle{plain}
\bibliography{org-bib-test-refs}

I believe you should put the \bibliographystyle and \bibliography commands
at the end of the document before \end{document}.
Next, to compile the file, you should first run pdflatex YOURFILE.tex, then
run bibtex YOURFILE (without extension or with .aux), and then again
pdflatex, possibly twice.
This can be done by first exporting to LaTeX and then compiling manually.
I think you can also adjust the variable `org-latex-to-pdf-process' in
order to include a bibtex command (not tested yet) in the org pdf export
procedure.
Good luck!

- The \bibliographystyle and \bibliography commands are at the end of the
document.
- The question is about how to get Org mode to do the whole job, as there
is a command for it which is supposed to do exactly that but it doesn't.

Have you tried (something like) the following in your init file?
(setq org-latex-pdf-process (quote ("texi2dvi --pdf --clean --verbose
--batch %f" "bibtex %b" "texi2dvi --pdf --clean --verbose --batch %f"
"texi2dvi --pdf --clean --verbose --batch %f")))
You can read more about this variable (and customize it) with
C-h v org-latex-pdf-process RET
I hope this helps,

N.B: the variable has been renamed in org-mode 8 - it is now called
org-latex-pdf-process.

If texi2dvi works, then there is no need for a three-element list: just
the first invocation of texi2dvi should be enough to do the job.
If texi2dvi does *not* work, then a three-element list is necessary (but
not necessarily sufficient): an invocation of pdflatex, followed by
bibtex, followed by (at least) another invocation of pdflatex (followed
by more invocations of pdflatex if there are still complaints).

Hi Jay,
Thanks for your suggestion, and thank you to all for your help. With a
minor modification (changing "--clean" to "--build=local", since otherwise
texi2dvi does not see my other included files unless I use "-I") it does
solve the problem, except for the efficiency, as Nick pointed out.
I think the only alternative would be to call a Makefile through a lisp
function in this variable.
For some reason, Org export to LaTeX (and full compilation) feels a little
sluggish to me; the export to LaTeX (.org => .tex) part must be quick and
the rest of compilation doesn't much have to do with Org. I could probably
use only one invocation of "texi2dvi --pdf --clean --verbose --batch %f"
and treat the PDF as a draft and then every once in while do a full
compilation.
Do you, or anyone else, have any comments or any other suggestions for
speeding things up?
