We are using the Sitecore WFFM version 8.1 Update-2 installed in Sitecore version 8.1 rev 160302. Our CMS site session state is configured to use "StateServer". We are using the SqlDataProvider to store the form submission data, and were able to write the data to the WFFM SQL Database.
Now, in the CMS, when we are trying to view the WFFM Reports, we see the below error related to session state. It seems if the "SessionState" of the CMS site is set to value other than "InProc", I see this error.
7372 14:54:47 ERROR Application error. Exception: System.Web.HttpException Message: Unable to serialize the session state. In 'StateServer' and 'SQLServer' mode, ASP.NET will serialize the session state objects, and as a result non-serializable objects or MarshalByRef objects are not permitted. The same restriction applies if similar serialization is done by the custom session state store in 'Custom' mode.

Does the WFFM Reporting module in CM works only if the session state is set to "InProc"?
