ValueError: No valid entries in the spine of this EPUB

I have already checked the spine and is ok,

Because, with the same spine entry , I have already converted other epub files to mobi and no problem.
The problem is with this file

I hope you could help me.

I attach the epub file that I am trying to convert to mobi.

Thanks!!

You have marked the only content file in your EPUB as a cover in the <guide>
section of the OPF. Remove that marking and your EPUB will convert.
