You don't need "All" AND "+Includes" -- you can have just "All" here, or
a list of the options you want. It could be that +Includes is causing
problems as a duplicate.

Next step: Did you stop and start Apache after making the change(s)? If
not, do so (should be /etc/init.d/apache stop && /etc/init.d/apache
start -- I find that reload doesn't always do the trick, for whatever
reasons).

Are the pages you're trying to utilize labeled with the .shtml
extension? Are they in /var/www and/or its tree?
