Inversion Puzzle

reference is not generated after compiling with latexmk -f -pdf

1

I encounter a problem to use latexmk to compile my paper.

Story:
I have my paper on overleaf online and the generated pdf view contains everything including the references.

Then I would like to work offline. So I git clone the repository and try to compile the source file with latexmk -f -pdf, which is how the overleaf compiles.

However the generated pdf file doesn't include the references. Of course, all the citations in the paper are showing as '?'.

For me, I am using windows and install latexmk with MikTex.
There is only on tex file in my repos and the bib file has the same name with my tex file.
Another information is the generated .bll fill is empty.

Any clues on this problem?

Thanks!

  Welcome to TeX.SX! Is there any helpful message in the .log file? Do you get a .blg file (if Biber or BibTeX was run there should be a .blg file)?

thanks a lot for the quick response! @moewe's answer lead me to resolve the problem.

I have the .blg file generated and it saying "I couldn't open style file IEEEtran.bst" which is not exist on my local. So after I download the file and put it in my repos with the tex source file, it works! The references show up.

The following is the beginning of blg file contents:

This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2016/Cygwin)
Capacity: max_strings=35307, hash_size=35307, hash_prime=30011 The
top-level auxiliary file: chang18exploiting.aux I couldn't open style
file IEEEtran.bst
---line 489 of file chang18exploiting.aux : bibstyle{IEEEtran : } I'm skipping whatever remains of this command I found no style
file---while reading file chang18exploiting.aux You've used 43
entries,
0 wiz_defined-function locations,
127 strings with 1157 characters,

@deleif, @DG' , thanks for replying. The log files contains lots of warning like:

LaTeX Warning: Citation `xxxxxx' on page 4 undefined on input line 359
.

LaTeX Warning: Citation `yyyyyy' on page 4 undefined on input line 39

  It should be found. But your BibTeX identifies as TeX Live 2016/Cygwin while you mention MikTeX. So I assume that you have several TeX distributions installed that interact badly. If you don't have a good reason for several installations, you may want to remove all but one.

  Perfect! I removed the Tex live from cygwin and remove the IEEETrans.bst file. And it still works. Thanks a lot!
