Such error messages typically indicate that you have some syntax error in
your input file, for example that a right curly brace is missing or that 
you
have a character string where you forgot the final double quote.

Also, if you get such errors, you will neither get a new .ps nor a new 
.pdf.
Are you sure that it's not old copies of the files that you see.
