The ground is damp around the perimeter of the pool?

If you have just filled your pool with water, You will see wetness on the outside of pool. On a New installation this is normal and is from wetting the sand (if used as an alternative to pool base) to help compact. You will also see wetness due to condensation on the pool wall. Normally you will see wetness approx 1 to 2 inches away from the tracks of pool, in some areas normally in front of an upright it may be up to 6 inches away. This is because the condensation on the wall falls into the track, which will run along the bottom of the track and exit at the lowest point. Please note that that these areas should only be damp and not a puddle of water. If there is a puddle of water on the outside of pool make sure that there is no other source, which would cause the puddle (such as the hose falling out of the pool, sprinkler system, washing machine or gutter drainage, rain etc.).
