Hi,
A google search of "blank httpd.conf" showed that people have encountered the same blank file on debian based systems (ubuntu is once such distribution).
What about the file "/etc/apache2/apache2.conf" ? That file contains the configuration that you should be able to use.

but didnt find the useful info like nameserver or virtualhost in that file what to do

hi,
In ubuntu their is no service like httpd heheh ; distro-2-distro changes.
instead of going to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf ... find this one /etc/thttpd/thttpd.conf
make sure you have the thttpd services installed.
if yes configure it and have fun .
