Hello all,

Firstly, I'm a bit of a beginner so please be as patient as you can.

I set up a practice website that sent data collected from a form to a
database. It worked.

I then tried to install an SSL certificate for better security.
Unfortunately it didn't work (when typing URL my browser couldn't open the
page). I then discovered certbot and used this to attempt to install an SSL
certificate. It doesn't work now. As I didn't make the changes myself I
can't go back and undo them. To be specific, when I type my domain into the
browser it shows me this (in Chrome):

"This site can't provide a secure connection" and "ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR".

Would somebody be willing to help?

So far I have this from openssl (sorry if it formats terribly, like I said;
beginner):

james@localhost:~$ openssl s_client -connect www.mydomain.com:443
CONNECTED(00000003)

I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 and Apache 2.4.18 (Ubuntu).

If anybody could help me I would really appreciate it. I only did the SSL
stuff this morning and I have heard it could take up to 24 hours to work,
but still...

Thanks,
James
