Sorry,

it was probably some change made log time ago (which I have forgot 
about), causing failure.
I just removed my configuration (/etc/apache2/2.4) and did "pkg fix 
apache-24"

:; grep ^HTTPD /usr/apache2/2.4/bin/apachectl
HTTPD='/usr/apache2/2.4/bin/httpd'

:; /usr/bin/ls -la /usr/apache2/2.4/bin/apachectl
-r-xr-xr-x   1 root     bin         3596 Jan 10  2016 
/usr/apache2/2.4/bin/apachectl

Now, apache is started. I need to re-apply my configuration.

Thanks (once more, my apologies).
Regards.

So, merge two files manually, preserving your local changes. As you can see, /etc/apache2/2.4/conf.d/modules-*.load files have gone, and you have to include LoadModule directives either in /etc/apache2/2.4/conf.d/*.conf files or in /etc/apache2/2.4/httpd.conf directly
