ServiceStack AuthenticateAttribute results in null reference exceptions second time unless cookies are deleted - authentication

Question

I am trying to get ServiceStacks Authentication to work on an MVC site. My controllers are like this:
public abstract class ControllerBase : ServiceStackController<AuthUserSession> {
//TODO: override LoginRedirectUrl
}
public class IndexController : ControllerBase {
[Authenticate]
public ActionResult Index() {
return View();
}
}
The first time I test the code by starting the site from Visual Studio, a redirect to the /login route is made.
Now if I start the site again from Visual Studio, the null reference exception shown below is thrown, and this happens on every restart until I delete all cookies in my browser.
Looks like an error?
NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.]

Ok never mind. The errors I experienced was probably because I had not implemented the login route yet.
