Server Side Includes don't work

I've activated ssi for the site, saved rechecked it, even rebooted it, but can't get them to work.

I've tried different variations of this line:

<!--#include virtual="/_menu.html" -->

including using the full domain. Am I making a mistake in it or is there somthing more I have to do to get ssi working with ISPconfig?

 

Is there an easy way to check?

 

Take a look at your Apache configuration.
Which distribution do you use?

 

I don't know.

I just ordered a hetzner server in December with debian 4.0 min and hired you guys to set it up with ISPconfig.

 

Then your distribution is Debian 4.0.
What's the output of

Code:

ls -la /etc/apache2/mods-available

and

Code:

ls -la /etc/apache2/mods-enabled

?

mod_include is enabled, so that's not the problem. But make sure that module is allowed in the directory where your SSI files are:
