[Tex/LaTex] Biblatex no .bib inserted and no .bbl file created – using TeXnicCenter

biblatexmiktextexniccenter

I tried to use biblatex for the first time, instead of BibTeX, which was fine, however LaTeX is obviously unable to insert the .bib file because the warning messages stay the same if I intentionally do not try to insert a .bib-file. Although I have been trying for several days, I could not find a solution to the problem. 

\documentclass{scrartcl} 
\usepackage[british]{babel}
\usepackage[babel]{csquotes}
\usepackage[backend=biber, style=apa]{biblatex}

\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{Bibliographie.bib} 
@ARTICLE{Sample1998,
  author = {Sample, Susan G},
  title = {Military Buildups, War, and Realpolitik A Multivariate Model},
  journal = {Journal of Conflict Resolution},
  year = {1998},
  volume = {42},
  pages = {156--175},
  publisher = {Sage Publications}
}
\end{filecontents} 
\addbibresource{Bibliographie.bib} 
%\bibliography{Bibliographie} % Did not help either
%\bibliography{C:/Users/<Musterpfad>/Bibliographie} % Did not help either

\begin{document}
Test \cite{Sample1998}

\printbibliography
\end{document}

The output looks like this "Test [Sample1998] "
I got no error but several warning messages:

BibTeX> WARN - Warning: Found biblatex control file 2.5, expected version 2.3 % as well as
LaTeX Warning: Citation 'Sample1998' on page 1 undefined on input line 23.
LaTeX Warning: Empty bibliography on input line 25.   
LaTeX Warning: There were undefined references.
Package biblatex Warning: Please (re)run Biber on the file:
(biblatex)                Test
(biblatex)                and rerun LaTeX afterwards.

Re-running LaTeX, even several times, did not change anything.
Moreover the .bbl file is empty.

I am using MiKTeX 2.9 32bit version (early on I have used the 64bit – there was no difference) and TeXnicCenter 2.02, 32bit. In the latter one I have changed the "path to the BibTeX executable" from "C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\bibtex.exe" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\biber.exe" I have the feeling that I should change something within the TeXnicCenter settings, therefore I attached my output profile.texniccenter output profile

I ran into the exact same problem using Texmaker. After re-installing the current MikTex version, I figured that the Biber package was still not updated. Manually downloading the current Biber version (http://biblatex-biber.sourceforge.net/) and replacing the old Biber.exe in the according MikTex file structure solved all problems for me.
