  • In your Global Configuration, set error reporting to maximum, then try logging in again to see if any errors are shown. I would also recommend you update your site to Joomla 3.3.1 as it's the latest stable version

You need to change the Group parent to registered (or any other than Public, Guest). As users from Public usergroup are not allowed to login at website.

Or you need to change the permissions of your newly created usergroup.

It is not only creating a new user group, but also what Permissions and access the users in a user group will have. If you have set your user group as a child of the Public user group, then it won't have Site login permissions.

You should either go in the Global Configuration -> Permissions and assign to it the right permissions, "Site Login" and only for simple front-end login (registered users), or set this usergroup as a child of the Registered user group, in order to inherit its permissions.
