rear lock problem on tailgate V70-XC70 1999

The alarm doesn't work because a door is open. Catch-22. Turn on the car and open the rear hatch. With a screwdriver, close the latch to the second click. Then see if the warning light goes out, it should. There is a micro switch in the latch on every door.
You can check the doors by flipping back the black lever just beneath the latch on each door. Be sure to lift the door handle before trying to close the door again!
