Solution:

All users who are to create a workspace, must have permission to use the entry "Collaboration Manager" in the Secure Store Service. Especially when they are accessed by outside users multiple authentication providers are mostly used. The use of the keyword "Everyone" is here not sufficient because this keyword, only the internal users, which are maintained in Active Directory into account.

In this example, the two system groups are "All Users (AspNetSqlMembershipProvider)" and "All Users (Windows)" entitled.

After this adjustment, the creation of workspaces is possible again.
