Question

Answer 1

Try any of these:

<% include header.ejs %>
<% include header %>
<%- include('header.ejs'); -%>
<%- include('./header.ejs'); -%>

Answer 2

Include paths are relative, you will need to update your paths to include the "partials" subfolder e.g.

<% include partials/header %>
<h1>welcome</h1>
<% include partials/footer %>

See the docs

Answer 3

Try this :

<% include header %>

    <h1>welcome</h1>

<% include footer%>
