Hello,
thanks Bob for your answer.
What exactly happened is the following
1- I have a working version of wintexmacs installed on my computer. I 
compiled a bibliography with wintexmacs.
2- I installed cygtexmacs on the computer. I tried to compile a bibliography 
on a differnet document than the one I used in wintexmacs. Something strange 
happened. I got the SAME bibliography from the previous document in spite of 
the fact that the document are different and they don't have te same 
references.
3- I noticed that cygtexmacs and wintexmacs use the same customization 
directory, that is .texmacs. Therefore, I erased to see what happens. 
Cygtexmas stopped showing the bibligraphy from the previous document and 
instead it showed the error message:
error: bibtex failed to create bibliography

I am not sure what is wrong here. I don't quite understand how bibtex work 
in cygtexmacs. I saw that there was a bibtex.exe in the bin directory but I 
don't see how to debug the problem!
