The enviroment names don't match, the ending part is missing an s.


Furthermore is suggest to read a LaTeX introduction (<- Link to free ebook)

[Stefan Kottwitz]

Just to be clear, this is the message about the missing s as above:

\begin{multicols} on input line 22 ended by \end{multicol}.

I just mention it specifically to confirm Johannes answer, because the minimal example code above does it right (\end{multicols} with an s). Btw. I mark as solved.
