Session NullReferenceException error

Question

I'm using below code within MVC controller class. My question is: when I attempt to run the code, I get the following error.

NullReferenceException

Code:

if (Session["User"] != null)
{
     return true;
}

What am I wrong? What is the problem misunderstood related with session?

Cheers,

Session is null, presumably because you don't have a session state provider configured or because it's not available at the point that you're making the call (such as in the constructor).

Well, try first init session in global.asax. Just add this code to global.asax

protected void Session_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
