I have found the reason for this errors.
there was a problem with the certificate, so you don't be able to repair the broken files, that causes in unable to start apache server.
i created a new one by myself and set it as default.
after this, i could repair all broken files with the just installed Plesk "Webserver Configurations Troubleshooter extension" 8)

maybe someone find it usefull in that case...

but i have only one weired issue:
after this, PSA uses my new cert for administration, but at "SSL Certificates" the AP shows the wrong used certificate? also i can't delete it, because i would be in use??
This is strange, because the setting in "IP-Adresses" shows the other one, that i have created and that is been used by plesk!?

How can i fix this issue? i don't want get a new problem with this "certificate-thing" at the next update!
