Rails - May 2006 - session not persisting

I set up session to save to the db and everytime I hit a page I get a 
new session entry created.  Some of them have session_ids of more than 5 
digits, but lots of them have session_ids like 0.

Something is amiss.

I built a test application and get the same behavior.  I cannot find any 
documentation of this bug so I assume I''ve done something wrong.

I did follow the instructions in ''Agile Web Development with
Rails'' step
by step though.

can you paste the lines from environment.rb that you changed to put sessions
in the DB ?

How did you create your session table in the DB ?

# Use the database for sessions instead of the file system
  # (create the session table with ''rake db:sessions:create'')
  config.action_controller.session_store = :active_record_store


class AddSessions < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :sessions do |t|
      t.column :session_id, :string
      t.column :data, :text
      t.column :updated_at, :datetime

Here is the code in my controller that gets called often to store a 
Score object to the session:

  private

  # Return the Score from this session, or create a new Score
  def find_score
    session[:score] ||= Score.new
  end

Here is my Score object:

class Score

  include Reloadable

  attr_reader :point_ids, :logged_test_id

  def initialize
    @point_ids = []
    @logged_test_id
  end

  def set_logged_test_id(logged_test_id)
    @logged_test_id = logged_test_id
  end

  def add_point_id(point_id)
    @point_ids << point_id
  end

end
