LyX uses a temporary directory. This might be the cause. You can try to disable the temporary directory (I don't know how exactly but guess that giving an empty path for the TempDir in Tools>settings helps). > 2.

I would try to put (or link) the *.bib files into a directory in the BIBINPUTS path, so it is found by LaTeX/BibTeX from everywhere. .. and substituting just file names for absolute paths. Günter
