To answer your question to the best of my knowledge, 1. Openssl 1.1.1 and above support TLSv1.3. These are the TLSv1.3 ciphers Openssl 3.0 support https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man3/SSL_CTX_set_ciphersuites.html 2. This link says that TLSv1.3 is supported. https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslciphersuite:~:text=If%20the%20SSL%20library%20supports%20TLSv1.3
Can you give us the output of $ openssl ciphers -s -v -tls1_3 One option to test the ciphers on your HTTPD is to change the SSLCipherSuite to allow all ciphers and use a tool like https://testssl.sh/ to list all the ciphers available to help troubleshoot further.
