.net 7 Visual Studio Code : InvalidOperationException: Session has not been configured for this application or request

I followed the example of this tutorial (https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/simple-login-and-registration-form-in-asp-net-mvc-using-ado-net/) to create a simple registration and login pages for C# MVC .Net Web app.

I was able to implement the user registration to a local mysql hosted by Xampp

However for the UserLoginController I’m getting the following error:

InvalidOperationException: Session has not been configured for this application or request.
Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.DefaultHttpContext.get_Session()
Project.UserLoginController.Index(Enroll e) in UserLoginController.cs
+
                    HttpContext.Session.SetString("Email", e.Email);
lambda_method28(Closure , object , object[] )

Below are some of my code and configuration:

Startup.cs (I had to add manually because "dotnet new mvc -o Project did not add it")

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http;


namespace Project
{
    public class Startup
    {
        public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
        {
            services.AddDistributedMemoryCache();
            services.AddSession(options =>
            {
                options.Cookie.HttpOnly = true;
                options.Cookie.IsEssential = true;
            });

            services.AddSingleton<IHttpContextAccessor, HttpContextAccessor>(); // Add this line

            // Other service configurations
        }


        public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
        {
            // Other middleware configurations
            
            app.UseSession();
            
            app.UseRouting();
            
            // Other endpoint and routing configurations
        }

    }
}

    In .net core below way we can set & get session value.

    For set session value please consider below syntax.

    Example : HttpContext.Session.SetString("login", "pass our value");

    For get session value inside view, please consider below syntax

    Example:

    @using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http
    @inject IHttpContextAccessor httpContextAccessor

    @httpContextAccessor.HttpContext.Session.GetString("login")

    Pior to .Net 6, We configure service and middleware in Startup.cs file, But after .Net 6, Asp.Net-Core remove Startup.cs file and use Program.cs file to configure service and middleware.

    So you not need to add Startup.cs file manually, Configure session in Program.cs like this:

    var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Add services to the container.
//other service

builder.Services.AddSession(options =>
{
    options.Cookie.HttpOnly = true;
    options.Cookie.IsEssential = true;
});

var app = builder.Build();

// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.

//other middleWare
app.UseSession();

//other middleWare

app.Run();
