Hi David,

It might be beneficial if you would share your lilypond file, or shortened version of it, so that the smart folks here can look at it and point you in the right direction.

Best wishes,
Jakob

I haven't used Lilypond for a while, but I have currently got v.2.24.1

I started a new, very small, project today, but I can't compile anything.  Thinking I must have forgotten even the basics of writing Lilypond files, I tried a few of my previous project files which I have successfully compiled in the past.  But nothing will compile.

If I use the bash command line, with, for example,  'lilypond -V file.ly' I get no compilation, and the output is identical to what I get if I just enter 'lilypond' with no option and no file.

If I try to compile from Emacs, using Ctrl-C Ctrl-L, I get exactly the same output as above, with "Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Sun Mar 24 15:54:38" or similar suffixed.

What can possibly be wrong?  Lilypond isn't giving me any clues.

David
