I'm getting this error when running

Code:
krolden@yume ~/Thesis/svn $ bibtex tu_bibliografiedb     
I couldn't open file name `tu_bibliografiedb.aux'


bibtex doesn't create a file called tu_bibliografiedb.aux either and as far as I know, the syntax of my .bib file is correct. I'm running it against a svn server, though, but I guess that's not the problem.

tetex version: 2.0.2-r8
bibtex version:
Code:
BibTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 0.99c
kpathsea version 3.4.5

TIA

EDIT:
apparently to compile bibtex you need to run

Code:
bibtex name_of_your_tex_file_without_extension
