Did you run the SQL script to create the necessary tables? Also, is there more to the error?

You will need "allowCustomSqlDatabase" property to be set to "true" when specifying a custom database in your "sqlConnectionString" attribute for SessionState. Or you can remove the "initial catalog" specification from your connection string so that "ASPState" default database is used for session management.
