Notes lining up, and warnings

Can someone help me here?  On this Anglican chant , in the tenth
measure (end of the first section of verse two) the melody notes are
1/2 notes and the harmony notes are whole notes, yet in my pdf viewer,
they are not lined up as I would like them.  I've tried in
LilyPondTool to shift them a bit, but it doesn't seem to be working
for some reason.  (It introduces a horiz. shift expression into the
line, but it seems to have no effect.)

Also, I'm getting some warnings in the compile which I don't
understand.  Here is a paste of the output in the console from
LilyPondTool:

error: failed files: "C:\\Documents and Settings\\Gord
Gilbert\\Desktop\\LilyPond Files\\Psalm121.ly"

Obviously, even though the log says it's a failed file, the compile
looks successful.  How can I get rid of these warnings?  Or are they
important?

Thanks as always for such an active and knowledgeable community.

Blessings,
