B&N ePub Problem

[93terp]

Hi everyone. I recently purchased 5 digital books from Barnes & Noble and was able to successfully de-DRM all five of them. All 5 books were downloaded from B&N in ePub format.

I'm having a problem with one of them while running through calibre to add metadata & do some surface "touch ups" before I upload it to my iPad. I get the "Failed to convert" error code in calibre every time I try it. Here's the log of the specific errors. Any help deciphering this & a workaround is much appreciated!

thanks Kovid. Just to clarify - attach the ePub file that causes the error or attach the error message I'm getting trying to convert?
