You did not comment out the whole \nomgroup definition. This includes
all lines until (incl.)

I removed all child documents and stripped the master file to a

the number of error messages of the type: Class Scrreport undefined

I don't get this error.


   Hopefully you can open and use the four attached files!?

If I remove the \renewcommands to \nomgroup and \pagedeclaration from
your preamble and to \bflabel in classicthesis-config.tex (since those
commands are not defined; the respective packages are not used), it
compiles.

Jürgen,
I changed things (to my best understanding) as you advised me to, see 
screenshots.
But the situation is as before: tons of errors and unable to produce a

If I  misunderstood what you had told me to do, please correct me. But 
if not, then we should just forget this whole thing.

Best,
Michael

In the 17 years I've used LyX, I've always put my whole book in one
file (well, plus the layout file and any graphics), and everything
worked beautifully. Most compiles less than 5 seconds, even on books
exceeding 100K words.

Meanwhile, in those 17 years, time after time I've heard people have
trouble with master and child documents. 

If you're a publisher farming out individual chapters to individual
authors, I understand the need for child documents. If you're writing a
book exceeding 1000K words (this would be about 3000 standard paper or
PDF pages), and you need to compile the document often, then I could
see the need for master and children. Otherwise, I don't get it. Single
LyX files work exceedingly well, while every couple months a report of
trouble with master/children documents appears on this list. Why would
one try master/children?

problems with documents produced with earlier

[Michael Berger]

Hello dear Lyxers,

after upgrading LyX to version 2.2.3 opening and editing (linguistic) 
papers made with earlier versions of LyX does work.
Conversion to PDF of each single child document works as well. But 
trying to generate a PDF from the master document results in an endless 
loop.


Any hint as to what could be the cause?

The papers were made in Mageia 5, now using Mageia 6
