This has been resolved - there was a little snippet at the bottom of
one of the wiki pages:

---
A table structure issue: take a look at the "sessions" table in the RT
database. There should be a column named "a_session". This column must
have the type "longblob" not "longtext". Also note that if there are
any records in the table, the entire table should be emptied (either
before or after making the change), otherwise the problem will
persist.

I changed the a_session column type to LONGBLOB and the problem went away.

Thanks!
