I have a MacPro M1 Pro (MacOS Monterey 12.5) and I was using biber 2.17 in MacTeX 2021 normally until Friday, then suddenly the program simple stopped to work. Basically, I evoke biber in the command line and the program stop compiling with the last message:
INFO - Found BibTeX data source 'alivros.bib' and nothing more happens, even if I wait 20min.

I tried everything that I found in internet:

  1. install new MacTeX 2022 ,
  2. update to biber 2.18
  3. delete cache (biber --cache)
  4. change PAR_GLOBAL_TEMP,

And nothing worked. I really do not know what to do. I will put here my .bib and .bcf data.

Can you run biber with the --trace option and see where it stops in the trace (that will be in the .blg file)

In the terminal I got this:

The .blg archive seems to be in a loop, the whole archive has +400mb ! But this is the loop process:

Edit: Here the complete .blg archive

From the many MD5 hash entry keys in the log, this looks like there are crossrefs or related entries here which are causing a loop. Now, there are routines in biber to detect loops and it looks like it's not catching this one. It's going to be difficult to diagnose unless you can narrow down the .bib to a minimal subset which causes this.

Solved! In two entries I put \family={} and \given={} instead of family={} and given={}, but, now, why this extra \ cause this crash ?

plk commented

Well, that will likely be interpreted as escape characters by either by the btparse library or the extended name parsing routines in biber which could have all sorts of exciting effects. Since this is such an edge case, I think we'll just close this ...
