Dear John
Your .bib file did not make it through the system as only a very limited
set of attachments is supported. Try to make a minimal .bib file which
triggers the problem by splitting your file in half, testing each half,
repeat until you get the smallest file which triggers the error.
Hopefully that will be a single entry which you can then include in your
post. It also increases the chances of someone looking at it as a large
.bib file is going to deter people.
