You apparently are having a configuration file problem.  Your apache is 
looking for /usr/local/etc/local/etc/httpd.conf

To fix this, you probably want to recompile your copy of apache but this 
time in the ./configure line use something like this in the parameters of 
the configure command:

./configure --syconfdir=/usr/local/etc

In fact, if you didn't use any parameters for apache you may want to do a

./configure --help

You should get a big screen dump of stuff including these options which are 
probably some of the most important:

Installation layout options:
  --with-layout=[F:]ID   use installation path layout ID (from file F)
  --target=TARGET        install name-associated files using basename TARGET
  --prefix=PREFIX        install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
  --exec-prefix=EPREFIX  install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
  --bindir=DIR           install user     executables in DIR
  --sbindir=DIR          install sysadmin executables in DIR
  --libexecdir=DIR       install program  executables in DIR
  --mandir=DIR           install manual pages in DIR
  --sysconfdir=DIR       install configuration files in DIR
  --datadir=DIR          install read-only  data files in DIR
  --includedir=DIR       install includes files in DIR
  --localstatedir=DIR    install modifiable data files in DIR
  --runtimedir=DIR       install runtime data in DIR
  --logfiledir=DIR       install logfile data in DIR
  --proxycachedir=DIR    install proxy cache data in DIR
