Hello,
I am running Red Hat Linux 7.2, and lilypond version 1.4.11-1. I'm
trying to compile a moderately large piece (75 measures of full band
score), and I get the following error when invoking ly2dvi:
Analyzing default.tex...
Running LaTeX...
error: latex: command exited with value 256
Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/bin/ly2dvi", line 850, in ?

system (cmd)
File "/usr/bin/ly2dvi", line 234, in system
error (msg)
File "/usr/bin/ly2dvi", line 132, in error
raise _ ("Exiting ... ")
Exiting ...
I get a .tex file out of this, but it's never more than the first four or five pages
or so of the score. I can compile the woodwinds, the saxes, and the brass all
separately, and they work beautifully, giving me the entire .ps file I want, but when
I try to compile the whole score at once, it goes splat. I still get a .tex file, but
if I try to turn that into a .dvi, I get only three, somtimes four pages of the score.
If I try invoking lilypond instead of ly2dvi, I get a .tex file without too much
complaint, but when I run tex on that to get a dvi file, I get the following output:

Output written on default.dvi (9 pages, 507964 bytes).
Transcript written on default.log.
Here I have 9 pages of the score, but that's still a couple pages short (it's about 12
pages long).
There are a handful of warnings I get when compiling either way, but there's nothing
that's fatal; mostly "putting slur over rest", or some inexplicable complaints about
beaming. Something very odd about this: if I compile the entire score with ly2dvi, it
finds a whole bunch of failed bar checks (which I can't verify by looking at the
score, because it inevitably stops right before the measure in question), but
compiling smaller parts of the score with ly2dvi (either the last 3/4 of the score,
full band, or the whole score, one section at a time), or the entire score with
lilypond, there are no failed bar checks.
I'm not sure what's going on here, and I really can't get enough output out of ly2dvi
to figure it out. Both the .ly file involved and the log of error messages are rather
lengthy; I can provide them if necessary. Does anyone have any ideas to help me out?
Thanks.
