Can't get Session variables to work

[AAaron123]

THIS ERROR :
Session state can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true,
either in a configuration file or in the Page directive. Please also make
sure that System.Web.SessionStateModule or a custom session state module is
included in the <configuration>\<system.web>\<httpModules> section in the
application configuration.
WAS PRODUCED BY THIS CODE:

Line 6: Dim directorySeparatorChar As Char =
Path.DirectorySeparatorChar
Line 7: 'Dim root As String = "C:\Documents and
Settings\Cal\Desktop\JUNKUploaded"
Line 8: Dim root As String = Session("UploadServerRootFolder")
Line 9:
Line 10: Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Handles Me.Load

SO I ADDED THE CODE BELOW BUT THAT DOES NOT FIX IT.
I ALSO TRIED ADDING EnableSessionState="True" to: <%@ Page ...
ALSO TRIED WITHOUT THE <remove name="Session"/>

GOT ANY IDEA WHAT ELSE I CAN TRY?

THANKS

....
<httpModules>
....
<remove name="Session"/>
<add name="Session" type="System.Web.SessionState.SessionStateModule"/>
</httpModules>
<sessionState mode="InProc" cookieless="true" timeout="20"/>
</system.web>

I started without them and added them per the error instructions.

 

[AAaron123]

Dim root As String = Session("UploadServerRootFolder")

Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

The above caused the problem.

The below works OK.

It would be great to know why that is so.

Dim root As String

Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Dim root As String = Session("UploadServerRootFolder")

Any way I pass it on for what ever it might be worth to someone.

Thanks, this fixed my problem (well, one of the more nagging one's at least). Your observation and posting of it helped me a lot!
