You are probably using "ProxyPass / http://someothersite/"
Now, when apache trys to read /fts_path_errors/..., it sees the ProxyPass
and passes that request off to the other server.  Obviously, that is not
what you want when the other server is unreachable.

You can probably solve your problem by adding the following:
ProxyPass /fts_patch_errors !
which should disable proxying for that directory.
