When you are breaking out your chapters like this into separate files, each file should have valid DocBook code, but NOT an overall element like <article>. (and no DOCTYPE headers and such). So they should be: <chapter> .... </chapter> or <sect1> or <section> or whatever. Think of what you are doing as an "include" where you are just sucking in the code into a single main file. Visualize the single file and think of how it should be constructed... then put those chunks into your separate files.
