I unzipped the ePub file. Here is the opf. I presume this is the form you are asking for.

The message does not say the ePub is not valid, just that B&N might reject it, and we don't know the requirements they have, but guessing:

They want a <dc:date> element. It is not compulsory by the spec, but it makes sense they want a date.

They want a opf:file-as attribute in the <dc:creator>, or they want the author names formatted as "Last-name, First-name", or something similar.

When I uploaded my original ePub to B&N, there was no error, or rejection.

The error message has occurred when trying to upload the preview version to lulu.com. Other than making sample dummy chapters, I haven't changed anything in the opf file--that I'm aware of.

I don't know how to add a correct <dc:date> element, or what format for the author's name.
