You will have to look at the code of the app and work out why. Presumably somewhere in your code you have attempted to prevent the creation without a story. If you cannot see what is wrong with that code (the code that prevents the creation without a story) then you could look at the Rails Guide on debugging to help you to find out what is going on.
