Solution 1

Go through this article, it would help: Exploring Session in ASP.Net[^]

It's explained in the article about enabling/disabling the session.

I've been struggling with this...but in my case the solution was slightly different. After following all the instructions to modify Webconfig and all the other stuff, I still had the problem! I had the assignment to a session variable on the page constructor.
I ended up moving that part of the code to the OnLoad event of other control, and it worked!
I want to thing this is because the constructor is called before any other library where the functionality for session variables resides, thus not available yet at the constructor point.

Hope this helps to future generations! :)

Solution 2

I had breakpoints set in the constructor methods of the base page, and the main page. Please remove the breakpoints in the debugger and the problem dissappeared! If still not works then please avoid to read the Session object in a constructor.

Please GEEKS!,
Would you think somebody posted this question might have even checked this funda?

To all sufferers of this problem, I have my findings here!
1. I could reproduce this issue in IE browser(IE10) and FIREFOX(22), though I have great settings of all enabled..etc.etc... in my local code, WHEN IE settings in Connection Tab --> LAN settings have "Use PROXY Server for Localhost..." checkbox shown as CHECKED - without a VALID PROXY server setting...

When I uncheck this In IE, the same code with DEFAULT Session settings, runs like HORSE!!

Doom to all GEEKS OUT THERE...

But for common people, IT WAS GIVING NIGHTMARES TO ME, hope I could save a few out of yours!

Peace!
