1) Here is the //correct// output I get on the console when
I do Document/Update/Bibliography to update the bibliography
of a file I have :

2) Here is the **incorrect** output I get on the console when
I do Document/Update/Bibliography to update the bibliography
of a file I have (I just renamed my .bib file in order to
make bibTeX unable to find it) :

So by looking at your own console output, you should
get more information about how your own bibTeX deals
with your .bib file, and probably do something to
solve the problem (if you still cannot solve the
problem after this, you should post the output you
get in order to get a more detailed help from people
on this mailing list : but for this, more detailed
information is needed :-).
