Apache ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED on Mac OS X Sierra 10.12

I've updated my OS X, then when I wanna reach the user/Sites directory, which function as my localhost's root directory, I get the following error message: ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.

Tried many httpd configuration variations from Google results, but nothing helps, apachectl configtest returns the following: httpd: Syntax error on line 537 of /private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf: Could not open configuration file /private/etc/apache2/other/+php-osx.conf: No such file or directory.

Should I create such file? If yes, what should it contain? Otherwise would it be possible to completely remover the built in Apache, then reinstall it?

Thanks in advance for the help!
