Since last Friday, the problem is solved thanks to the input I received from everyone here. I changed "NameVirtualHost *:80 <VirtualHost *:80>" To "NameVirtualHost IP-address <VirtualHost IP-address>" My colleague had defined the first VirtualHost container in the httpd.conf file for a test-website by using the '*', so every request was forwarded to that address which doesn't contain anything. By repacing the '*' with the IP-address of the server, all following VirtualHost containers in the configuration file were processed. It seems you can only define one VirtualHost container with an '*': this one will then allways be processed when no match is found in the others. A big thank you to everyone who responded to my question.
