I am trying to set up the newest SQL version on a Win2k server with SQL 2k. I can run the ms_sql_server_setup.asp fine, and it says that it completes successfully. I am using the same login info in the sql_server_connection file, so I am pretty confident of authentication. After the setup, however, when I try to run the form at http://server/site/ - http://server/site/ or http://server/site/default.asp - http://server/site/default.asp , I always get this error returned:

Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'
Variable is undefined: 'Session'
/site/common.asp, line 53

I have also set this up differently in IIS, where the root of the folder is the parent folder, so the last part of the error message returns:

/site/forum/common.asp, line 53

This is probably something silly that I have done wrong, but I just can't seem to find it.
Any help would be appreciated.

we had a discussion about this a couple of days ago, and theres nothing wrong with the script and not anything you have done with it.. its the server config

This is a server settins, in order for the software to run on your site the web server needs to be able to use session variables.

I'm sorry I missed the other thread. I searched for the error, but didn't see anything.

Could you please tell me how to fix the session variables setting or point me in the right direction?

Ah, ok. I found it. Once I checked the box for "enable session state", it works great.

Thanks for the help!
