Try running pkg upgrade -f apache24

That will force a reinstall of the package and put the now deleted 
httpd.conf file back again. Which would be enough to get things working 
again *if* you've never changed anything from the defaults.

If you have changed that file then you will have to remember what you 
changed and make the same changes. And think about getting backups!
