Where are you trying to cast the create portal spell??
There are some areas in which you cannot create a portal - this generally seems to be inside dungeons where it would be most handy TO create a portal. Outdoors, I never found any problem. After you have created your portal, you need to move off from your portal to cast teleport - returning to the portal you made. Having Call of Home, which takes you back to the last town you visited is really handy with these other two spells.
