Arrow IIS not persisting sessions
On my local machine (windows 2000), IIS is not persisting sessions. I can set session variables and print them out, but when I refresh the page, the variables are gone. I created an ASP with the line "Response.Write Session.SessionID" and each time I refresh, I get a new session ID.

I tried accessing this asp from several different machines with several different browsers and got the same result.

I also went to the web site settings and ensured that "Enable Session State" was checked.

Any clues, anyone?

Check in the IIS mmc and verify that you're web directory is set up as a web application.

It is. That is how I verified (as I mentioned above) that "Enable Session State" was checked.

Also, if it was not set up as a web app, I wouldn't be getting anything back.

So, I am still debugging my machine, wondering why sessions don't work. Then, when fooling with the global.asa, I notice it starting to work. So I empty the global.asa and it stops working again. So, I try adding just a space to global.asa, AND IT WORKS! So I search google for "session global.asa empty" and look what I found!
