Hi David. Thank you for that advice. I get Sigil to open and save the epub. Now, Calibre can upload the epub to my Kobo without the error!

I downloaded the epubcheck plugin for both Sigil and Calibre. I don't know how to run the plugin in Calibre. I run it in Sigil and see error codes, but why bother fixing the error codes when simply getting Sigil to save the epub solves my problem?
