bibtex doesn't work when using subfolder
I use texstudio on mac. I changed my configuration so the auxiliary files will be saved in a subfolder. Everything works except bibtex. I get the following message:
Error: Could not start the command: bibtex.exe build/"myfile" -include-directory=build
I copied this line from a previous answer, and tried many other options, but none of them worked.
Attached pictures of my commands and build settings. Thanks!

Remove the.exe
and trybibtex build/% -include-directory=build
. On Mac OS executables usually don't have the.exe
file extension..exe
is a Windows thing.

You will be repeatedly advised by long time epert users this is NOT a good Idea I did show how it MAY work for some cases BUT I strongly advise against it see problems that can arise tex.stackexchange.com/a/472061/170109

That's the reason why I never use such build folders. You can spent a long time to get all tools working correctly ...

That said, I think-include-directory
might be MikTeX-specific and thefore not available if you are using TeX live or MacTeX (MikTeX only recently made its entry onto Unix OSes). I firmly believe, however, that these 'build' subfolders create more issues than they solve and would recommend against using them.

ok, I see a consensus here that I should not use the build folder stuff :) Thanks for your feedback everybody!
