"/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory" error after Ubuntu upgrade

So I upgraded Ubuntu and I went to 127.0.0.1 in Chrome and got "Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 127.0.0.1" so I restarted Apache but was met with this error:

apache2: Syntax error on line 215 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory

Action 'configtest' failed. The Apache error log may have more information. ...fail!

This is the contents of my /etc/apache2 folder:

conf.d/
mods-available/
mods-enabled/
sites-available/
sites-enabled/
apache2.conf
apache2.conf.dpkg-dist
envvars
magic
ports.conf

What's going on? How can I resolve this?

Solution 1:

For some reason you are missing the http.conf which usually has no content.

Please try to create it and restart your web server

touch /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
