Migration fails when using certain table name

I’m trying to do this migration, but it fails when I try to create a
default content using Section.create I get an error saying ‘unitialized
contant Section’
The weird thing is if I use a table name like ‘categories’ with
Category.create instead of ‘sections’ and Section.create then it all
works fine! I’m working from Rails 1.1

This is an example migration that fails:

class InitialSetup < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up

# Page sections table
create_table :sections do |t|
  t.column "title",       :string,    :limit => 60
  t.column "link",        :string,    :limit => 60
  t.column "page_title",  :string
  t.column "keywords",    :string
end

# Default content
Section.create :title => "Home", :link => "home"

end

def self.down
drop_table :sections
end
end

======

Error: ‘unitialized contant Section’.

But use create_table :categories and Category.create and it all works.
Am I missing something glaringly obvious here?

Are you sure you defined a model named Section ?

Doh! Thanks Christophe, as you can see I’m very new to this! I had a
category controller, but forgot to rename it to section when I decided
to rename the DB table.
