We don't know, but with your help we might find out. Maybe this is bug 2127
(but I doubt it, see below): http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2127.

First we need to find out whether the error is on the LyX side or TeX side.
Export the file to LaTeX, and run it through pdflatex manually. Does that
work? If not, what are the error messages?

This is different to bug 2127: There LyX tries to run TeX in dvi mode, here
it does the right thing.

This should not happen: pdflatex can use .jpg files natively. Did you check
whether the file in the temp dir does actually exist and is readable? Can
you run a simple .tex file that includes this very image through pdflatex?
