This sounds more like a gameplay issue, than a technical support issue. Moved from Tech Support.

Welcome to the KSP community!

Let's start with the basic: Would you mind showing us a screenshot of your spacecraft in question? Also, does the problem comes up with any of the sample craft, which should be labeled (Stock) in the load craft dialog box.

...also, did you put a pilot in that cockpit?

Specifically, an actual Pilot skill kerbal, not just any old kerbal to fill the seat.

The game normally puts a Kerbal automatically in the cockpit when you click the "fly" button from the SPH,   but it won't if

a) there are no Kerbals available

 

b) the root part is not the cockpit?

Most of the time the first part I place is the cockpit, but when adding one late on, I've often found the game won't assign any crew unless I do it myself.    Cured by using the re-root tool and selecting the cockpit

The part normally puts the pilot in the cockpit if you click on the part list to spawn a cockpit and attach it. Then, if you detach the cockpit, to, say, put a heatshield under it, it removes the pilot and doesn't bring him back once you re-attach the cockpit again.

Also, the game only auto-fills the first crewed part. So if you attach a cockpit on top of an mk1 crew cabin, you'll have two kerbals in the cabin and none in the cockpit.

Also, if you take the pilot out of the cockpit manually, it seems to remember that.

But to the OP -- that is what that message means: you need to click on the "crew" tab and put a pilot into the cockpit, because there isn't one there when you clicked the "launch" button.
