Unable to serialize the session state

问题

While executing a .aspx page i am getting the following error. Can you please let me know how can i solve it.

Unable to serialize the session state. In 'StateServer' and 'SQLServer' mode, ASP.NET will serialize the session state objects, and as a result non-serializable objects or MarshalByRef objects are not permitted. The same restriction applies if similar serialization is done by the custom session state store in 'Custom' mode.

This line is pretty telling. You need to mark objects with [Serializable] to serialize the object (the MSDN link contains more details about serializing the object graph).

In my case, I was trying to serialize the non-serialized object that is HttpResponse. So this couldn't help me.

Check this if this couldn't solve your problem: Asp.net serialization error for session state

This post save my time and solved my problem.

回答3:

[Serializable()]
public partial class CustomersMaintLog
{

回答4:

Add the following attribute to the offending class:

[Serializable()]

If that doesn't work then:

Consider using mode="InProc". I ran into this issue by switching to "SQLServer" and rolling back to "InProc". This might fix the issue because InProc doesn't require objects to be Serializable.

Which one is better, InProc or SQL Server, for Session State mode in asp.net?
