Reproduced successfully in Win32. I think it should be Prioritized as "Very Low", since it might be a symptom of a bug in Contracts that might cause other problems.

Updated by This is the only contract that checks for the vessel leaving the ground, but if you are on launch clamps you have no ground contact.
This can also occur if your rocket is on a part that is destroyed by engine heat at launch, the only part the player starts with that can do this is the structural pylon.

This bug doesn't only happen with launch clamps, but happens if you have any part that is "left behind" when the vessel is launched; e.g. if you put a decoupler on the bottom of the first stage engine and stage it with the engine.
