I get the same error if I try to run lyx from the console command (I had
tried this previously and just to make sure, I tried again).
It appears that the subfolders are write enabled for everyone.
Any other suggestions?

OK if that works, assure that the installation folder of LyX and all
subfolders have write permissions for "everybody".
If this is not the case, you have to reconfigure LyX again after
adjusting the permissions.
At last you can run LyX by the console command
lyx -dbg 3
to have an extra debug window. Now call Edit -> Reconfigure and look
what happens in the debug window.
