Your title page template file was modeled after
the testtemplate.xml file in the template directory, right?

That test file is wrong, because it is missing
the <t:titlepage-content> element.

Replace: 

> <t:titlepage element="book" side="recto">
>    <title predicate="[1]"/>
>    <subtitle predicate="[1]"/>
>    etc.

with:

<t:titlepage element="book"> 
  <t:titlepage-content side="recto">
   <title predicate="[1]"/>
   <subtitle predicate="[1]"/>
   etc.

That must be an old test file.  I filed a source forge bug
on it.

You might want to read the template/titlepage.html
doc file included with distribution.
