Cause

QWP relies on sessions to provide additional functionality. Quest Web Parts pass data between web parts using sessions.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to use Quest Web Parts with disabled sessions. It's is a system requirement for the tool.

Resolution

Please run the "Quest Web Parts for SharePoint Configuration Editor" Start | All programs | Quest Software | Quest WebParts for SharePoint | Configuration Editor and fix all of the red "!". You would need to have all green check marks when you open the web.config file for the Web Front End (WFE) that you are trying to load. If you have multiple WFEs you would need to change the web.config from our Quest Web Parts for SharePoint Configuration Editor on all WFEs. Please take a backup though our config editor creates a backup.
