[Tex/LaTex] How to add a table of contents in Latex using TeXStudio

table of contentstexstudio

I'm trying to simply add a table of contents to my report using TeXStudio by using the following command after the abstract: 

\tableofcontents

This creates a heading Table of Contents but it doesn't list the sections only the title of the report.

My headings are as follows: Intro,Lit Review,Methodology,Conclusion.

Does anyone have any idea how to remedy this?

This is the skeleton of the template with content removed:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% file typeinst.tex %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

% This is the LaTeX source for the instructions to authors using
% the LaTeX document class 'llncs.cls' for contributions to
% the Lecture Notes in Computer Sciences series.
% http://www.springer.com/lncs       Springer Heidelberg 2006/05/04
%
% It may be used as a template for your own input - copy it
% to a new file with a new name and use it as the basis
% for your article.

% NB: the document class 'llncs' has its own and detailed documentation, see

table contents incorrect headings

The declaration in the report:

Best Answer

the llncs class has lots of interesting feature, unless publishing in LLNCS, it's probably not really the class I would choose.

Here it sets 

  \setcounter{tocdepth}{0}

so you might want to add

  \setcounter{tocdepth}{3}

to your preamble so that your table of contents has some content.
