By using PowerShel cmdlets you are able to start the state service on for your web application.

$stateName = “State Service”
$stateDBName = “StateServiceDB”
$stateDB = New-SPStateServiceDatabase -Name $stateDBName
$state = New-SPStateServiceApplication -Name $stateName -Database $stateDB

New-SPStateServiceApplicationProxy -Name “$stateName Proxy” -ServiceApplication $state –DefaultProxyGroup

If you already have state service configured check that
