If you are unable to include a sitemap.xml file and route in Laravel 9, you can try the following steps to resolve the issue:

1. Double-check the file name and file path to ensure that they are correct and are in the correct folder.

2. Make sure that the sitemap.xml file is readable by the web server. On Linux or Mac, you can use the chmod command to set the file permission to 644 or similar. On Windows, you can right-click the file and select Properties to ensure that the file is not read-only.

3. Check your routes/web.php file to ensure that there is a route defined for the sitemap and that it is pointing to the correct controller method or closure.

4. Check the contents of the sitemap.xml file to ensure that they are valid XML code and that all URLs are correctly formatted.

5. Clear your application cache and try loading the sitemap again.

6. Check your server logs for any errors or warnings that might shed light on the issue.

7. If all else fails, try posting a question on the Laravel community forum or asking a developer who is experienced with Laravel for assistance.
