>From the error message, I assume that you

* changed the Fonts from Default to Times (or similar)

* used some Greek letter (most probably as Unicode char in a math formula)


However, the Times font that comes with TeX does not include Greek letters
(for text, at least).

You can 

* switch to a different Font (e.g. Latin Modern (untestes)), or

* use e.g. \eta instead of the Unicode Char η for eta in math.
  
  Generally, in math, you should not use Insert>Special Char>Symbols
  (which inserts text symbols) but the Symbol tables from the math
  toolbar or the equivalent latex macros or keybindings.
