Take a look at the tenor part, line 125:

123:  c'2 c'4
124:  c' g a |
125:  c' b g8 f | % this bar
126:  e2. ~ e

That f should be an f4, I think (right now it's an eighth note, but a 
quarter
and three eights is not a complete measure).  I just skimmed the rest 
of the
file, but I think this might be your problem.

Also, a semi-related tip: one thing I find helpful is to put an 
explicit duration
on the first note of every new line (which is also every new measure, 
if you
write one measure per line). Trying to remember which duration a note 
should
be is just too error-prone, IMO.

HTH,
