HttpContext.Current.Session is null when routing requests

Got it. Quite stupid, actually. It worked after I removed & added the SessionStateModule like so:

<configuration>
  ...
  <system.webServer>
    ...
    <modules>
      <remove name="Session" />
      <add name="Session" type="System.Web.SessionState.SessionStateModule"/>
      ...
    </modules>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Simply adding it won’t work since “Session” should have already been defined in the machine.config.

Now, I wonder if that is the usual thing to do. It surely doesn’t seem so since it seems so crude…
