Incomplete epub export: documents skipped due to errors

When trying to export an epub file, I get this message: 

Documents : 37 skipped. (Documents not found or received error during export.)

I have a number of documents added to a  new "book." When exporting the ebook, it only exports select documents, not all the documents I added. I formatted these documents using Indesign 2020. However, I just upgraded and am trying to export them with Indesign 2021. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks.

Is this a Reflowable ePub or a FXL ePub?

Did you use the InDesign Book feature to create the document Tetra?

It was an existing print book. Yes, used InDesign Book to create. and it is a FXL ePub doc.

It's a mix. Mostly text with some photos interspersed


It might be worth buying a month's worth of the epub validator Flightdeck – it's an invaluable resource: https://ebookflightdeck.com

I am having the same issue and it's driving me crazy. It doesn't always stop on the same chapter. Sometimes 10 are skipped, sometimes 13. I thought maybe it was memory issues, but I'm fine. Any other insights here?
