So you are accusing me of being a liar ("... I doubt that ...").  Why would I 
report a problem that I would make up?  You can visit my website on which I 
have posted the pdf documents that I have compiled with LyX 2.0.2 if you do not 
believe me.
 
I do realize that the TeX code I sent is not clean.  It was not typed by me but 
generated by Scientific Workplace.  And I am also aware that TeX distributions 
get updates all the time.  I update mine (TeXLive 2011) at leat once a month.  
In fact, before submitting my latest reply to this bug report, I had downloaded 
the latest update, hoping it might fix the problem.  It did not.  What I have 
tried to explain in the previous messages is that something has changed from 
LyX 2.0.2 to 2.0.3.  The same TEX files, with the same LaTEX environment can be 
imported into LyX 2.0.3 and compiled into a pdf file.  With LyX 2.0.3 it 
fails.  Everything was the same except the version of LyX.  
 
I solved the problem, I uninstalled LyX 2.0.3 and reinstalled LyX 2.0.2.  You 
don't have to look into the problem if you do not want to.  But please, do not 
accuse me of being a liar.  This is highly unprofessional and uncalled for.

Comment:

> The exact same file worked fine on all previous versions of Lyx.

I doubt that. You are excessively using TeX-Code and most of it begins
with a "%" and is therefore not taken into account by LaTeX. Why are you
not using the LyX way - without TeX code but by choosing a frame
environment when you need one? The example file "beamerlyxexample1.lyx"
that is part of your LyX installation shows you how this is done.

To come back to your problem: this is caused by the TeX-code command
"\maketitle". Remove it and it compiles. It can be that Beamer changed
something in its new version. As your document contains a lot of preamble
code you will risk such things. Do you know what all your preamble
commands do? If not, remove as much as possible. And please attach SMALL
LyX documents with as less content as possible as testcases for bug
reports. Otherwise it takes too long to find the problem.

Note also that the LaTeX packages are updated by the package authors from
time to time, so new versions of the packages can introduce problems. The
package update might be done automatically and we LyX developers try to
get everything to work with the latest versions of the packages. But cases
that a new package release make a LyX document uncompilable are rare. But
for TeX-code and preamble commands LyX is not responsible. Therefore only
use TeX-code if it is really necessary and if you understand what it does.
