Debian 10 server

Greetings,

I want to add Server Side Includes(SSI) to my website, so I can update the links dynamically, but I have issues getting it to work on apache. I, of course have the code added to the pages:

Code:

<!--#include virtual="/sidebar.htm" -->

and also added these three lines of code at the bottom of my apache2.conf file:

Code:

Options +Includes
AddType text/html .htm
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .htm

I'm also using the .htm extension instead of the default .shtml. Did I missed something to add? (P.S SSI worked perfectly fine when I was on IIS in Windows Server, so my pages are confirmed to be fine)

Sadly, didn't get it to work, I even changed it from "file" to "virtual", like the docs suggested, but still looks for the file in the same directory where the index file is, instead of the higher directory, where the SSI file is.

error.log:

Code:

[Thu Dec 02 21:22:17.010974 2021] [include:error] [pid 9945] (20023)The given path was above the root path: [client <ip-address>:0] unable to include file $

Well then move the directory to a place it is accessible, like the error helpfully tells you...
