When we setup a state server we get the following error:
Server Error in '/' Application.
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.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Hi Ben,
Do you happen to keep a reference of our control in the Session? You can not do that.
Thanks

I dont keep the treeview control in session but I do keep a reference to a treenode in session. Why would this not be supported?

That explains why. We don't support it because it makes no sense. Most of the time a TreeNode lives in the context of a TreeView, which lives in a even bigger context of the Page. If we were to support that, there is a chance that when .NET serializes the TreeNode, it will grab the TreeView and even the page and try to stuff them all into your state server.
Even with in process session you don't want to do that either. Whenever you keep a reference to the TreeNode, you might be also keeping an reference to the TreeView and the Page. All these is in memory so it probably won't matter much if your site load is not that big.
In generally, you should only keep simple data item in the Session.

When I originally started using your Treeview control there was no selectednode property. So I kept what node was selected within session as a reference. I will have to look through my code to see the best way to change this for some various functions I've written Thanks
