Your system has banned Imagemagick conversions from EPS to bitmaps.
This can be changed typically at
/etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml
Look for lines containing the ban e.g. <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="EPS" />. (similarly for "PS","PDF").
Removing those lines might help.

Incidentaly we tried to address this in recent patch to lyx 2.4.
If you can compile master on your own, things might work out of the box.
