@abyss Except for the fact that running Biber from the menu doesn't work for me
(maybe it was a fluke), I am able to reproduce your issue on 2.9.93.
You're right. It does seem like giving the full path to Biber makes the
difference. First I made a healthy LaTeX document like this with all of my
settings normal and it was able to build fine:
\documentclass{article}``
\usepackage[backend=biber, style=alphabetic]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{Reference.bib}
\begin{document}
\begin{abstract}
\end{abstract}
Test \cite{whomstever}
\section{One}
\end{document}
After that, I go to the settings and change Biber to its full path,
/usr/bin/biber in my case. I go down the Build menu to Reset Auto-Detected Back
End, and typing a little more, the live preview still works fine.
If I take out the \cite{} and save, then it breaks as you described. Resetting
the auto-detected backend doesn't make a difference. Changing the setting to
Biber explicitly makes it work. Switching it to Auto-Detect after that keeps
using Biber. But if you try to write \cite{} again, it will switch to BibTeX.
Kile always does the right thing if Biber isn't given as a full path.
