Make sure that, before you try to invade the planet, all enemy ships in orbit have been destroyed.  If there are ships in orbit, you will see a little shield icon below the planet on the main map.

Also, researching marines will simply give you a bonus to your soldiering ability, which will make invasions easier.

Hope this helps!

So when your transport moved onto the planet tile what happened then?

You should get a pop up window asking what type of invasion you want to do, then you click invade, and get the battle animation.

Just to be sure - please confirm that the planet you tried to invade did not have a shield icon on it at the time.

If you sent a troop transport to an undefended planet and it refused to invade, I can only think of two potential reasons:

1) There were enemy ships in orbit around the planet (indicated by a shield icon on the planet), or
2) There were no troops on the troop transport (I'm not sure if you can even launch a troop transport without any troops on board, but this is the only other thing I can think of)
