Rails - Jul 2009 - Data migration using find_by_name

I am trying to set an attribute of a model based on a find_by_name
search but it will always return the ID of 1. When i run this same
search in the console it returns me the correct ID (6)

class LoadDefaultUser < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    #department  = Department.find_by_name("All Departments") <--
this
always returns ID of 1 for the migration. Returns ID of 6 in console
    #department  = Department.find_by_id(6) <-- this always returns ID
of 1 for the migration. Returns ID of 6 in console
    department  = 6    # this sets the department_id correctly so i know
it should work???

    user = User.create(
      :name             => ''Administrator'',
      :department_id    => department);
    user.save!
  end

  def self.down
  end
end
