8 years ago \advance is a TeX command. pmx supports full TeX, and I am afraid there is no way that pmx2ly can fully mimic that. pmx2ly knows about quite a number of TeX commands, but \advance is not one of them. Two ways to cope with this: 1) remove the \advance command and its argument(s) 2) add \advance to the list of TeX commands recognized, and most probably ignored, by pxm2ly.
I had added to the TODO for pmx2ly: a run-time flag to define/ignore TeX
commands. This would help: you then would be able to invoke:
$ pmx2ly -U\advance 2
Anyway, you might consider whether just removing this increment to \barno isn't easier to fix, or is automatically handled, by Lilypond after the fact; then you would choose "solution" 1).

When trying to convert the included 'choral1.pmx', an exception is thrown. It is most likely causes by the line
|\assignlyrics2{choral1}\stdbarrules\advance\barno by -2\ |
as removing |\barno by -2| causes a successful conversion. At first I though that it might have been caused by the custom barno function as the original is replaced in the mychoral.tex file, but removing either the assignment itself or the definition as a whole don't make the exception going away.
