How to fix "Session state can only be used when enableSessionState is set to true"?

Genrating following 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.

I have set EnableSessionState="True" in page directy and also in web.config file
basicaly i am using an http module for URLWriting. Error genrating in user control on page load event in which i have checking session["user"] Like
if (Session["User"]==null) condition.
Please help me.

Go to IIS administration, select your website/application and go to properties and set the sessionstate settings in there.

Unfortunately, this message "Session state can only be used..." is NOT ALWAYS APPROPRIATE i.e. it can be displayed even if your "EnableSessionState" setting is positive { by the way, the shortest setting Works!}
Then, never forget the most stupid things: - The Interval Life time of "Session".
If you use Global.asax file in your site :
- Methods Session_Start() and Session_End() will delimit the "Session" variable life time.
NOTE: Avoid usage of Server.Transfer() inside Global.asax:
this might lead to unexpected results.
