Can't insert citations with return key?

[dineshadepu]

Hi,

Org ref works fine. But while I tried to insert a citation by using C-c ] it corectly shows all the references available, but when I select a citation to cite, it wont insert such paper into the file. The prompt will simply go off and I see nothing in my file.

My configuration

     (require 'ox-latex)
     (add-to-list 'org-latex-classes
          '("phd"
            "\\documentclass[twoside]{iitbreport}"

            ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
            ("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
            ("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
            ("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
            ("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}")))
     (eval-after-load "org"
       '(progn
      ;; .txt files aren't in the list initially, but in case that changes
      ;; in a future version of org, use if to avoid errors
      (if (assoc "\\.txt\\'" org-file-apps)
          (setcdr (assoc "\\.txt\\'" org-file-apps) "notepad.exe %s")
        (add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.txt\\'" . "notepad.exe %s") t))
      ;; Change .pdf association directly within the alist
      (setcdr (assoc "\\.pdf\\'" org-file-apps) "evince %s")))

     (use-package org-ref
       :ensure t)

     (setq org-ref-bibliography-notes "~/Dropbox/bibliography/notes.org"
       org-ref-default-bibliography '("~/Dropbox/bibliography/references.bib")
       org-ref-pdf-directory "~/Dropbox/bibliography/bibtex-pdfs/")

     (unless (file-exists-p org-ref-pdf-directory)
       (make-directory org-ref-pdf-directory t))

     (setq org-src-fontify-natively t
       org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil

Did you resolve this somehow?

[dineshadepu]

I changed my config and was able to resolve it.
