ASP.Net Session_Start event not firing

I have an ASP.Net 2.0 application in which the Session_Start event is not firing in my Global.asax file. Can anyone tell why this is happening and how I can get it working?

The application worked fine on my Windows XP development machine, but stopped working when deployed to the server (Win Server 2003/IIS 6/ASP.Net 2.0).

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but the server also hosts a SharePoint installation (WSS 3.0) which I know does change some settings at the default web site level.

I had to remove the following tag in SharePoint 2010 web.config:

< remove name="Session" />

Is the <session /> section in the web.config?

Is the site precompiled before adding global.asax? Try compiling it again.

Are you sure the website in IIS is set to use ASP.NET 2.0 rather than 1.1?
