been exchanging e-mails with Riki about this problem. It's keeping

from submitting a client report that needs to get out and I hope
others can

see a solution.

<br>
Context: running lyx-2.3.3 on slackware-14.2/x86_64;
kbiblatex-0.7.7 is the
<br>
UI to the scientific references database, jabrefdb.bib. There is
one
<br>
reference in the database that lyx does not insert in the document
when I
<br>
click the 'send to lyx' link on the kbibtex UI. The lyx document
shows this
<br>
as ??(??) on the attached lyx-bad-cite.png. FWIW, yesterday I
added two tech
<br>
report references to kbibtex. The first one lyx accepted from
kbibext the
<br>
second one is rejected.
<br>
<br>
When I click on that grey box (or use Insert -> Citation) lyx
tells me the
<br>
reference is not in the database, but it displays the citation on
the right
<br>
panel (see attached lyx-citations.png) where it can be deleted but
not added
<br>
to the full list in the left panel.
<br>
<br>
Why this one citation is a problem after years of no problems
getting
<br>
citations from JabRef to lyx (and all the other citations in the
current
<br>
docuemnt from kbibtex) makes no sense to me.
<br>
<br>
I'll provide additional information when asked.

If, instead of pushing references via kbiblatex-0.7.7, you just add
the entire .bib file to the document (Insert > List / TOC >
Bib(la)TeX Bibliography, Add... to find and add the .bib file) and
then select references from that, does it work? If yes, you should
be good to go. If not, maybe that particular entry in the .bib file
is malformed.<br>
<br>
FWIW, I've never tried to push references to LyX from JabRef; I
always just select the .bib file in the bibliography inset (path of
least resistance).<br>
