BUG: Error message after you uninstall the .NET Framework 1.1 on a 64-bit computer that has the 64-bit version of the .NET Framework 2.0 installed: "Unable to make the session state request to the session state server"
Consider the following scenario:
- You install the 64-bit version of the Microsoft .NET
Framework 2.0 on a 64-bit computer.
- You install the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1.
- You uninstall the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1.
In this scenario, you receive the following error
message:
Unable to make the session state request to the
session state server. Please ensure that the ASP.NET State service is started
and that the client and server ports are the same. If the server is on a remote
machine, please ensure that it accepts remote requests by checking the value of
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\aspnet_state\Parameters\AllowRemoteConnection.
If the server is on the local machine, and if the before mentioned registry
value does not exist or is set to 0, then the state server connection string
must use either 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' as the server name.
This problem occurs because the .NET Framework 1.1 uninstall
process removes the Microsoft ASP.NET state service.
To work around this problem, reregister ASP.NET 2.0 with
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). To do this, follow these steps:
- Click Start, click Run,
type cmd, and then click OK.
- Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
cd %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\Version
Note %windir% represents the path of the
Microsoft Windows system folder. Typically, this path is C:\Windows.
Version represents the .NET Framework 2.0 version
number. For example, type v2.0.50727. - Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
aspnet_regiis -i -enable
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are
listed in the "Applies to" section.
