The newer machine seems not to have the problem today (I couldn't reproduce it). I'll try this at home on my upgraded PC, which is where I know I had it before. It could be system-dependent. As I recall, it was one of the file conversion routines that was failing, not producing the output it should, and the next step in the LyX processing was getting a file not found error. On a related note, the MikTeX distribution servers were intentionally offline again yesterday. I got a couple more upvotes to my answer at https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/254393/17868. I posted this issue in the MikTeX tracker: https://sourceforge.net/p/miktex/bugs/2604/ -- it directly affects the LyX installations relying on MikTeX.
