authlogic 2.0.0 rails 2.3.2

When I try to create a new user with this controller action:

  def create
    @user = User.new(params[:user])
    @user.email_confirmed = false
        
    if @user.save      
      @user.deliver_email_confirmation_instructions      
      redirect_to new_user_session_url
    else
      render :action => :new
    end
  end

I get the following error: Authlogic::Session::Existence::SessionInvalidError in MerchantsController#create

Your session is invalid and has the following errors: Your account is not confirmed
