There seem to be rather a lot of install problems lately, so it seemed appropriate to have a specific thread on it.

That said, the first thing to do if a mod does not load as should is to check if indeed it is installed properly. In this case:
- is MOO2Civ [patch X] in the Firaxis Games\Civ4\BtS\Mods folder (or the corresponding folder if you have custom installed installed the game - I do not recommend installing MOO2Civ in My Documents)
- does the ...\Mods\MOO2Civ [patch X] folder contain all the downloaded files (Art, Assets, etc. - you can easily check this by comparing the size of the folder with the indicated unzipped mod size, which is currently roughly 100+ MB).
If the answer to both questions is Yes, then you may have a bug/error to report - so please do so!

So, your problem is that when you start a game, the solar system with your capital in it has no planets.
Do you have anything installed in your CustomAssets directory, like BUG, by any chance? If you do, you'll have to edit the Final Frontier.ini file so that:
