Rails - Jul 2006 - having a problem with acts_as_state_machine

Hi all:

Below is s a dump from script/console in development env.

Am I not supposed to be able to find the record later and use the
state machine functionality, or have I missed something?  Thanks

Forrest

>> ts2 = TalkSession.create( :person_id => 2, :pattern_id => 2)
=> #<TalkSession:0x35811f0 @attributes={"pattern_id"=>2,
"id"=>11, "person_id"=>
2, "state"=>"looking_for_experts"}, @new_record=false,
@errors=#<ActiveRecord::Errors:0x34627b0 @base=#<TalkSession:0x35811f0
...>, @errors={}>>
>> ts3 = TalkSession.find_by_person_id 2
=> #<TalkSession:0x32f5f08
@attributes={"pattern_id"=>"2",
"id"=>"11",
"person_id"=>"2"}>
>> ts2.current_state
=> :looking_for_experts
>> ts3.current_state
NoMethodError: undefined method `state'' for
#<TalkSession:0x32f5f08>
        from
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-1.14.3/lib/active_record/base.rb:1792:in
`method_missing''
        from
./script/../config/../config/../vendor/plugins/acts_as_state_machine/lib/acts_as_state_machine.rb:68:in
`current_state''
        from (irb):16

Nevermind, figured it out, I didn''t put a column for state in the DB.

THanks for listening..

Hi  Forrest Chang,

Can u please tell me how can I use the acts_as_state_machine with 
example.

I want to use the plug in for work flow of my application.
I am waiting to your reply.

Thanks
