In LyX, do "Edit->Reconfigure".
Every time that you change the capabilities of your TeX installation (e.g. because you instlled more document classes), you have to tell lyx to reconfigure itself for the new "capabilities", or you will get extrange errors like the one you got.

Yes, very it isn't very intuitive, but it's productive once you get the hang of the tools. Its overly useful when you want to automate producing documents from command line programs, as you only have to make a suitable template (for example using LyX and then export to LaTeX/TeX), and the make scripts that generate files following that template and running latex/pdflatex to convert them to documents or pdfs.
And, after al,l the output of LaTeX is very, very nice...
