Category Set not recognised in Shop app

Hi I'm trying to install Shop app (and have successfully on another site) but for some reason I cannot get Shop to "see" the category sets I create on this one. As it is the only app I currently need on this site I have done a fresh install of Perch to a new database to see if that would help. Previous install had no currencies tax or shipping this was corrected by the fresh install but still no category set. Any ideas?

You need to create a category set for your products. Have you done that?

Yes, opened the categories app and created one but shop can't "see" it is there more to it than that?

What do you mean by not being able to "see" it? In the admin or on the front-end?

What can you see in debug?

Back end. When you are setting up shop there is a list of tasks that have a green completion tick; no matter what I do I can't get one for category sets.

If the set is called something other than Products, have you reflected that change in your templates?

I thought I had, but obviously not!
