I was having a very similar problem.
Check the apache logs, if it is trying to access the file /index.html
instead of /path/to/www/index.html, than I was having the same problem.
Search the mail list archives for similar problems.
What was happening for me was apache was segfaulting every few requests. I
never came up with a good solution/workaround, and eventually resorted to
rebuilding the machine.
