Run lilypond --verbose to get more information on what goes wrong. If you can't solve it yourself, send a copy of the printouts to the mailing list.

I've discovered that while in one directory, "lilypond <file.ly>" automatically creates a pdf file; but while in another, it only creates a latex file and doesn't go any further. What's happening?
I'm using version 2.1.0, by the way.
This is just a guess, but you're not giving much. :-)
Here's a little more:
All of my LP files are stored in ~/Documents/Lilypond. In that directory, there is a subdirectory for each piece I work on. My current piece, Four Brief Statements for Solo Guitar, is thus contained in the directory: ~/Documents/Lilypond/Statements, and contains st1.ly. This is only the second piece I've begun working on w/ LP. The first piece worked fine; all invocations of lilypond produced a .dvi and .pdf file. But while working on Statements, LP only spits out a latex file. What has changed?
Do you have any of your output in a separate directory? If so, it might be safer to use an output directory above the current, by using ./out/ or something like that, rather than using a fixed directory like /temp/out or something like that.
If you are suggesting that there is a default directory for output, I'd love to find out how to set it.
I would like to know if this is a really stupid answer. daveA
