sometimes it is _very_ difficult to debug a large file. :(
If the way Phil (and others) suggested shows no result, you can try to
make something like a "dummy-file". I.e. delete all music, overrides
etc and introduce first a simple line of music, with \repeat unfold
... into the most simplified score-set-up.
Second: add successive the needed commands to the score-setup.
Third: replace one by one the \repeat unfold music with the original
etc

In the attached file I made a 20-staff-score. Then I tested to add
lyrics and chords to each staff. Third I added alignBelowContext and
alignAboveContext to chords respectively lyrics.
If you compile it, you get a 100-pages-pdf without problems, at least
with "2.15.20"

The only other way would be to post the entire file hoping someone
with much leisure time can help you.

HTH,
