Losing session variable

[Sari]

Hi,

I've got two pages, page1.aspx and page2.aspx.
I've got a problem when I'm trying to access the
session variables in the second page. The session state is
null when I'm trying to get the values.

Code for page1.aspx
------------------------
Session.Add("str", "test");
Response.Redirect("Page2.aspx");

Code for page2.aspx
-------------------------
string str1 = Session["str"].tostring();


I don't know whats wrong. Please help!
Thanks,

Sari

but you will want to

check your web.config, machine.config and your page directive to make sure
you have enabled session state.

ml/cpconpage.asp


You may also want to check that your aspnet process isn't recycling (there
will be an event log entry, check in task manager to see if the PID of the
process changes when you browse.)

I assume your web pages both live in the same sub directory under your web
root (i.e. the same web application)
