[texhax] extra endgroup problem (apacite bibtex)

[Mehmet Ergun]

Sorry for my impatience but does anyone have any kind of pointers for
this? I know about and read the apacite.pdf and still don't understand
what I am doing wrong.

Also, when I use commands such as \fullcite or \citeNP, latex gives me a
"extra engroup" error for that entry. When I use \cite, latex gives
"Author(year)" instead of "(Author, year)".

Google doesn't give anything, probably because I have the wrong
keywords... One site suggested that I use texhash - I double-checked my
ls-R and apacite is in there. logs show that it is being used during
compilation.

Any pointers appreciated,
Thanks,
Mehmet.
