Hi again, I solved the problem, although I'm not yet sure what has been the real cause.
My assumption, that the redirection of the user with the session-key appended failed seemed to be correct. After manually entering http://examle.com/index.pl?OTRSAgentInterface=SessionKeyReadFromSessionTableInDatabase After playing around with some settings (regarding perl-handlers, error messages: "script produced no output", "Script failed to send data") I googled these and found suggestions to downgrade ActivePerl from 5.16.3.1604 to 5.16.3.1603. So thanks to everybody who read my mail and tried to help.
