You didn't specify the source where the error occurred, so it is not
clear to me that it has anything to do with that Session object. But
that /is/ possible.

The error means that you try to use some reference as if it is pointing
to a real instance of a class, but (at this time) it isn't pointing
anywhere (it's null).

Your crash *can* occur in a place where you try to use that session
object, if that object doesn't exist (yet). Say you are trying to use
that object before the person has logged in (causing that userid to be
set).

Solutions:
1) carefully review your application: are you trying to use that
session object before it is filled?
2) check that it really exists before using it. In C#:
if (Session["userid"] != null) ...

Hi, check if the session is not null before working with it.
if session("userid") isnot nothing then
.....
end if

Have you checked your session timeout value?.
