that is the content of it:
- open LyX 2.0svn
- open a file that you previously created with LyX 2.0svn
- export it to format LyX 1.6.x

Result: no converted file is output.

It only works correctly when you made a change to the opened file.

I understood the last sentence as
loading my file, change it (eg add a word), 
export it as lyx 1.6.x file

however, Pavel (and the author of the ticket) ment to change the name of the 
file (?).

Now I understand. There is indeed a .lyx16 file, but this does not show up if 
I try to load it into the lyx 16 version.
I have to rename it to 'a-name.lyx'
Loading this solves the issue.

I thought lyx 1.6.x understands .lyx16 and loads that one.

Sorry for the noise.

There is still the question why I get this error if I try to load the .tex 
file:
An error occurred whilst running tex2lyx -f 'EG-Q16x.tex' 'EG-Q16x.lyx'

and this one if I try to load the exported .html file:
An error occurred whilst running java -jar htmltolatex.jar -input 'EG-Qn.html'
-out
