It would be much better if you could provide a small example to show what you mean. Also, if you reply-all, then the message goes to the lilypond list as well, and not just me.

Then that's what 's wrong. I want both sections to be before the repeat and if I enclose both of them within the same pair of volta brackets no repeat symbol is displayed on the pdf. If I enclose only one of the sections within the bracket then the repeat displays, but obviously only for the one section.

Version 2.10.33 and Win XP SP2, btw.

everything within the volta brackets will be before the repeat. If you want section 2 to be after the repeat, then it needs to come after the repeat. i.e., \repeat volta 2 { section 1 } \repeat volta 2 { section 2 }

Nuts. I just realized I entered my example wrong. This is how it should look:

\repeat volta 2 {
<< {notes in section 1} \\ {notes in section 1} >>
<< {notes in section 2} \\ {notes in section 2} >>
}

Alternative endings are not in my example, but I have used them. In any case, should the repeat work over those two "sections" or should the repeated music be in one "section"?

I seem to be having trouble making a repeat work over more than one polyphonic section. For example:

\repeat volta 2 {

<< notes in section 1 >> \\
<< notes in section 1 >>

<< notes in section 2 >> \\
<< notes in section 2 >>

}

This won't work. I have to put all of the repeated measures within a single section. Is this correct?

What are you looking to do? This works fine:
{
   \repeat volta 2 {
      << { c'4 b a b }\\{ g2 f } >>
      a8 b c' d' e' d' c' b
   }
   \alternative {
      { << { d' c' b2 }\\{ a2 f } >> }
      { << { d'2 c' }\\{ a4 b c'2 } >> }
   }
}
