I asked you not to adorn the file name with fancy URL style stuff. You do it anyway, and it bombs.
You should type:
lilypond lily.ly
You should *not* type
lilypond file:lily.ly
because it will bomb on you.
If you *want* to include the whole path name of your lilypond file, do it like this:
lilypond /home/sarah/lily.ly
I don't know what you intend with the -I=/usr/lib flag. I think it has no meaning at all. Library paths are not specified with a -I flag, and -I= is a syntax error anyway. Unixes have a separate mechanism for library inclusion, which is uninteresting now because I think that is not your problem. Your problem is that you specify the input file in a wrong way.

Why can't lilypond find the files it needs? Below is the last try. Sarah Cordish The file lily.ly was written in emacs and is as follows: \score { \notes { \time 3/4 \clef bass c2 e4 g2. f4 e d c2 r4 } } \score { \notes { \time 3/4 \clef treble c2 e4 g2. f4 e d c2 r4 } }
