I'm getting a missing begin{document} error despite having a begin{document} in my code.

Other files here (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B4GteP8rSaosSGZDLTJrbFJlUWs?usp=sharing). It appears the bibliography causes problems.

I can think of two diagnoses:

• 
  

  You simply failed to load the biblatex package. (A reason for contemplating this scenario is that your document doesn't include a bibliographystyle instruction; such an instruction is required by BibTeX, but not by biblatex.) If biblatex isn't loaded, the bibliography instruction must not be placed in the preamble. If it's simple failure of loading the biblatex package, do load it. You should also change the instruction

  
  
  

  bibliography{bibfiles.d/.master,bibfiles.d/.psd,bibfiles.d/.Cook2012}
  
  

  
  
  

  to

  
  
  

  addbibresource{bibfiles.d/.master.bib,bibfiles.d/.psd.bib,bibfiles.d/.Cook2012.bib}
  
  

  
  
  

  (Under biblatex, bibliography is deprectated.) Note the addition of the .bib filename extensions. You're still planning on providing a few cite instructions and a printbibliography instruction too, right?

  
  



• You really do not intend to load the biblatex package. In that case, the bibliography directive mustn't be placed in the preamble. Instead, it should be placed in the body of the document, in the location where the formatted bibliography should be placed. You will also need to provide a suitable bibliographystyle directive, of course. And, you'll also be providing a few cite instructions, right?

Incidentally, do the three bib files really all start with a . (dot)? This would make the "hidden" if they are located on a unix-like system.
