Checking 000-default-le-ssl.conf after successful completion of the certbot HTTPS routine:
Certbot entered more lines in the already existing file that was created by scratch when executing
sudo nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default-le-ssl.conf
creating a complete mess.
It created kinda a double entry and also added <VirtualHost *:80>
I started testing and comparing and ended up with the following file:
000-default-le-ssl.conf
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that

#LogLevel info ssl:warn

# after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
ServerName yourdomainname.com
Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf

firefox gives a:
SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG error,
so I used port 443 as in the example and apparently that works.
