You wrote this:

# Menu 2 cObject
lib.menu_2 = HMENU
# First level menu-object, textual
lib.menu_2 {
    wrap = <DIV class="tabcontainer"> | </div>

     2 = TMENU
     2 {
     wrap =  <div id="+page_id+" class="tabcontent"> | </div>
     noBlur = 1
     expAll = 1

But you cannot create a HMENU without defining level 1. That is

2 = TMENU

without corresponding

1 = TMENU

does not work.

What I said is to change your 2 = TMENU into 1 = TMENU ("your 
second-level menu should be configured as a first-level menu") and in 
order to actually start your menu with the second-level and not get 
twice the same menu in lib.menu_1 and lib.menu_2, adding this

lib.menu_2.entryLevel = 1

This is what I meant with "with property entryLevel of the HMENU item 
set to 1".

Meaning:

lib.menu_2 = HMENU
lib.menu_2 {
     entryLevel = 1
     wrap = ...

     1 = TMENU
     1 {
        ...
     }
}
