tmpdir issues on Mac yosemite

Open strow opened this issue 9 years ago • 1 comments

I am editing this 1-day old issue. It turns out that bibtex2html works fine on smaller .bib files, which makes me believe that there must be some corruption (or just a bad entry) in my bigger .bib file. I will continue testing.

Thanks, Larrabee

Compiled 1.98 on Mac yosemite (via brew).

It produces .aux, .bb. and .blg files, but no html. Maybe this is fine, but the .aux, .bbl, etc. files have what appear to be temporary file names, maybe OK. I tried the export TMPDIR=. but didn't help.

Here is an example output

-rw------- 1 strow staff 0 Dec 29 16:13 bib2html5168c5 -rw-r--r-- 1 strow staff 51 Dec 29 16:13 bib2html5168c5.aux -rw-r--r-- 1 strow staff 398284 Dec 29 16:13 bib2html5168c5.bbl -rw-r--r-- 1 strow staff 59722 Dec 29 16:13 bib2html5168c5.blg

The .blg and .bbl look as they should. Just no .html files.

Hi,

(Sorry for the late answer.)

The .aux, .bbl, .blg files are indeed temporary files (that should be removed by bibtex2html before completion if everything works fine).

I don't understand what's going on here (this is the first time such a bug is reported) and I need access to a Mac to investigate, which I should be able to do today hopefully.

In the meantime, could you please give me the invocation of bibtex2html you're using and its output (with and without the -debug option)?
