I hope you updated the file syntax first to correspond to your version of LilyPond. The .ly files were written for version 2.2.6
and much has changed since then. After updating the syntax using
convert-ly (I think there is a menu command available for that on MacOS), I could compile the file here without any such error.
However, there were quite a number of warnings and the file uses
a number of features that convert-ly unfortunately not can handle
automatically, so you have to edit the file by hand, for example
to get the titling correct.

Quoting Themis Matsoukas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I  downloaded a file from mutopia but when I try t open in lilypond I  get:

An unexpected error has occurred: (UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 204-206: invalid data)

The file in question is http://www.mutopiaproject.org/ftp/ChopinFF/O69/w10-h-moll-cfi/w10-h- moll-cfi-lys.zip. This contains two .ly files both of which produce the same error.

I am running lilypond 2.10.23-1 (vBuild from Tue May 1 11:50:24 2007 on a G4 iMac (10.3.9)

TIA

Themis
