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):
CONNECTED(00000003)
140444419827352:error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol:s23_clnt.c:794:

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
