Apache returns default page instead my content

Question

My web site works perfect, but sometimes apache returns default html page:

It works!
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.

No configs and other settings at this time have not changed. I looked through the logs and noticed that at this moment there was a lot of simultaneous requests per second.

I have a question. Can Apache under heavy load to display the above page, not the site's content?

Or what could be the problem?

Apache HTTP Server would not serve different content based on load). It seems like some misconfiguration on your VirtualHost, try VirtualHost Examples - Apache HTTP Server Version 2.2, pay extra attention to ServerName and make sure that set correctly.

VirtualHost and ServerName are correct – user451555 Jul 02 '14 at 18:11

Have you set up your VirtualHosts config to handle aliases of your main website address?

ServerName example.com
ServerAlias www.example.com

If www isn't an Alias, and someone uses www (or vice versa, doesn't) they will get the default Apache page.
