Open the book in Sigil, delete both cover pages. Use Sigil's Tools/Add cover to select the cover image and make a new cover. It will make all the semantics right.
Look at the TOC and if it lists the cover (not required, but often done) make sure it links to this new cover page.
If it's an epub3, under Tools/epub3 tools use "Generate NCX from NAV". You need to do that any time you change the TOC.
And if you have any other links to the cover, update those too.

In general, use epubcheck to check and give hints (often obscure) to any errors in the book.
Install the plugin, much easier than uploading to get checked.
