I grabbed the file from the bug report that you said 1.4.4 could import
but 1.5.3 could not. On my box (LyX 1.5.3, XP Home), I can import it
(using File -> Import -> LaTeX (plain). I get a bunch of warnings about
unrecognized commands and such (presumably because I'm not designating a
document class), but I do not get the "something went wrong" error you
encountered.
I repeated the conversion from the command prompt and captured the
output from the error stream. Again, it produced a loadable (if not
necessarily correct) LyX file.

Then I guess that it maybe has something with my computers configuration to
do. This is my work computer, and I do not have administrator rights on it,
but some limited rights. For example, I can install and uninstall some
software, but not all. Could it be the cause of the problem?
Seems unlikely. Both LyX 1.4.4 and LyX 1.5.3 run tex2lyx on file (just
different versions of tex2lyx). You obviously have enough rights to run
the newer tex2lyx, else it would not be there to give you the error message.
What should I do to get a more detailed error report form LyX?
You could try opening a DOS prompt in the directory where the .tex file
lives and run '<path to LyX>\bin\tex2lyx cjasguide.tex cjasguide.lyx'.
Maybe it will give a more useful error message.
