Try this:
Go to the master pages.
If you select the text frame on the master page, and view its properties (Graphics->Object properties), you'll see a section in the bottom right of the properties dialog. In English this section is named 'Flow'.
Normally, the main text frame should be part of a text flow, with a flow tag (usually 'A', see the 'Tag' text box).
Below the 'Tag' box there is a check box marked 'Autoconnect'. This should be on. When it's on, Frame will automatically create new pages when you reach the end of a page.
