Ok, meanwhile i've fixed it, i hope.
I've made a new linux-installation (-this solution very likely only 
works at home...-) , then, when installing koha, i chose the 
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf file, not the httpd.conf. Opened the 
/etc/apache2/apache2.conf and inserted: 

         Include /etc/koha-httpd.conf 

right under the already existing line that says

         Include /etc/apache2/ports.conf

and then into the /etc/apache2/ports.conf I inserted

         Listen 8080
         Listen 80

hope I'm not boring you ;-), I'm sure somewhere in the 
documentation these actions are precisely described, but maybe this 
is of help to someone, someday.

Greets,
Stefan
