    I'm getting this error randomly on my site: 

    Exception Details: System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException: Type is not resolved for member 'Authentication.CustomPrincipal,OrchidAuthentication, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

     By random meaning I can surf around  before it'll crash and then most of the time I can hit refresh and it'll work just fine again.   I have an HttpModule that sets the context.User to my principal on begin request.

    I figured it out, It was because I had [Serialiable] on the object, why would that cause it to randomly not work?
