I occured same problem, solved adding some xml options to .enex file like this;

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE en-export SYSTEM "http://xml.evernote.com/pub/evernote-export3.dtd">
<en-export export-date="20180227T115050Z" application="Evernote" version="Evernote Mac 7.0.1 (456248)">
- <note><title>test</title><content><![CDATA[
+ <note><title>test</title><content><![CDATA[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE en-note SYSTEM "http://xml.evernote.com/pub/enml2.dtd">
<en-note><div>test</div></en-note>
]]></content><created>20180227T115026Z</created><updated>20180227T115032Z</updated><note-attributes><author>narukami894</author><source>desktop.mac</source><reminder-order>0</reminder-order></note-attributes></note>
</en-export>

Deleting every instance of <!DOCTYPE en-note SYSTEM "http://xml.evernote.com/pub/enml2.dtd"> in the Evernote export will allow the script to run without error.

I exported a notebook containing 52 notes. I had to delete 52 doctypes embedded in CDATA as a result.

Even then, the resulting output was less than ideal. Every note has <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> still embedded in it. The Evernote formatting was also completely lost.

Overall I think there's a lot of work to be done here to make this migration path viable.

Guys, I've created this: give it a shot if you want https://github.com/muhammad-saleh/evernote2boostnote

Stupid hack with GNU utility sed:

sed -E -i 's/<!\[CDATA\[<\?xml version="1\.0" encoding="UTF-8"\?>/<!\[CDATA\[/g;s/<!DOCTYPE en-note SYSTEM "http:
\/\/xml\.evernote\.com\/pub\/enml2\.dtd">//g' notes.enex
