Trouble creating epub3 output

I have a gradle build that outputs HTML and PDF from my asciidoc document. I am now trying to add epub3 output, but it fails with:

[source]
----
(NoMethodError) undefined method `to_sym' for nil:NilClass
Did you mean? to_s
----

This is my build.gradle:

[source]
----
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
classpath 'org.asciidoctor:asciidoctor-gradle-plugin:1.5.7'
classpath 'org.asciidoctor:asciidoctorj-pdf:1.5.0-alpha.16'
classpath 'org.asciidoctor:asciidoctorj-epub3:1.5.0-alpha.8.1'
}
}

plugins {
id 'org.asciidoctor.convert' version '1.5.7'
}

version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'org.asciidoctor.convert'

asciidoctorj {
version = '1.5.6'
}

asciidoctor {
backends 'html5', 'pdf', 'epub3'
options doctype: 'book'
attributes 'build-gradle': file('build.gradle'),
'sourcedir': project.sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs[0],
'imagesdir': './images',
'icons': 'font'
}

defaultTasks 'asciidoctor'
----

I also get lots of warnings that "tag 'foo' not found in include file: /Users/wdb/Projects/....."

I am running on Java 8, on Mac OS X.

Re: Trouble creating epub3 output

Is there a version of the epub3 plugin that works with the 1.5.7 gradle plugin?

I see that https://github.com/mraible/infoq-mini-book uses the 1.5.3 of `asciidoctor-gradle-plugin` with 1.5.0-alpha.7 of the `asciidoctorj-epub3` plugin and that works.

But when I try to use 1.5.7 with 1.5.0-alpha.8.1, things are not working anymore. I get:

> Task :mobi
asciidoctor: ERROR: chapters/preface.adoc: line 1: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
asciidoctor: ERROR: index.adoc: line 40: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
asciidoctor: ERROR: index.adoc: line 42: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
asciidoctor: ERROR: index.adoc: line 44: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
asciidoctor: ERROR: chapters/action.adoc: line 2: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
asciidoctor: ERROR: index.adoc: line 54: invalid part, must have at least one section (e.g., chapter, appendix, etc.)
(NoMethodError) undefined method `gsub' for #<Asciidoctor::Epub3::Packager:0x60de53ee>

Creating an EPUB has very specific structural requirements. Have you followed all the steps outlined in this section?

Re: Trouble creating epub3 output

Yes, the epub file gets created with the "old" versions. Only when I try to upgrade to the newer versions things break down.
