Created new database

I created a new database and set up category.  But when I try to create a new article in the database and select new, I receive a pop-up for Select Category, but will not allow me to select a category and it will not allow it to remain blank.  The category shows up but it is grayed out and can not be selected.

Can you tell me what I might of set up wrong?

I can't reproduce this. 

I make a category (though I can't imagine why one would at this point, they kind of suck), it shows up in the pop up and I can select it.

Can you put it in steps exactly what you are doing?

That is really all there is to the configuration.

​You member group might not have permission to add new content to the specific database and/or category.
