this doesn't work with LyX because it needs a different bibtex run
and had the above error. You can write your doc with LyX if you
like - citations are much more easier to handle.
In this case write in Layout->Preamble
\usepackage{footbib}
\let\cite\footcite
\let\bibliography\footbibliography
\let\bibliographystyle\footbibliographystyle
in your text insert your citation as usual insert->citation
and at the end of your doc also as uaual the bibdata file:
insert ->Lists&TOC's->Bibtex reference.
now export the doc with file->export->latex and insert with any editor
into this exported texfile as very fisrt line
\batchmode
then run from within the doc-dir
latex file.tex
latex file.tex
bibtex file.fb
latex file.tex
and everything should be okay.
