In my thesis, the list of symbols and list of abbreviations are not showing in the table of contents and their pages are completely blank. I want to print the complete lists without using the command gls in the text. Any suggestions?

BTW: I am using the glossaries package.

The compilation is:
txs:///xelatex | txs:///makeglossaries | txs:///bibtex | txs:///xelatex | txs:///xelatex

Update:
The files full.glg and full.alg are not generated by default when I complile the TeX file full.tex . However, they exist in the default template folder and when I copy them to my thesis folder, the lists don't appear in the contents as well, and their pages are blank completely. The content of those two files

When I copy the full.gls file, it prints only the default glossaries. Although I added new glossaries, they didn't appear.

%to use the glossaries package, the symbols and acronyms have to be defined first

%SYMBOLS: Symbols can be defined using the following code

newcommand{sym}[4]{%This command can be used to define a symbol as explain below

    newglossaryentry{#1}{%

        name={#2},

        description={#3},

        symbol={#2},

        sort={#4}

    }%

}%

%The format for defining a symbol is as follows

%sym{label}{symbol}{description}{alphabetical sorting name}

%label: This will be used later on in the main body to use the symbol

%symbol: The actual symbol to be used

%description: The description of the symbol

%alphabetical sorting name: This name will be used to sort the symbol in alphabetical order if desired

%example symbol definition

sym{mysymbol}{ensuremath{Gamma}}{This is a symbol}{gamma}



%An acronym or abbreviation can be defined as follows

%newacronym{label}{short}{long}

%label: this will be used to call the acronym in the main body

%short: the acronym

%long: the full form of the acronym

%example acronym

newacronym{phd}{Ph.D.}{Doctor of Philosophy}
