views will not display preview, validation errors [#524090]

I have read all advanced help docs but cannot figure out how to correct this:
1. views will not display preview- validation errors.
2. When adding a plain node page I keep getting the rd box that reads
" * Display "Defaults" uses fields but there are none defined for it or all are excluded.
* Display "Page" uses fields but there are none defined for it or all are excluded."

I am new to views and was trying to add my first node view via the tutorial http://learnbythedrop.com/drop/85
and he does not seem to have the same issue. Any feedback from anyone would be much appreciated.

Cheers!

If you set "row style" to fields you have to add fields, by using the "+".

If you don't want to set fields, set row style to node.

So you didn't read this in advanced help, i guess there is a lack of documentation. Perhaps you could write some documentation for it :)

Thanks for the help, I had actually figured it out and came back to post theinfo incase it helped someone else but you beat me to it=).
I appreciate you taking the time to post. I followed 2 video tutorials and read advanced help neither of them mention this either (unless I missed it in Advanced Help.) Should be in the help txt I agree. How would I write up the docs for it?
