Usually, such error messages mean that you have some completely different
syntax error in your file, such as curly braces that don't match.
Unfortunately, it's very hard for LilyPond to detect all such syntax errors
and provide a readable error message. This also means that you have to do
some careful searching yourself in the file to figure out exactly what the
problem is. Working with a copy of the file, you can try to comment out
(or remove) sections of the file to narrow down where the problem is.
