Ensure the Internet has access to your system on port 443.
Perhaps a firewall is blocking?

I can telnet my web server from everywhere local/internet. It is the default raspian 9.1 stretch installation, I didn’t check if there is a firewall or not. I will
It is not easy to find prerequisites. As for Apache it is using tls, I have to allow 443 and 80. Do I need to have my own telnet server or is certbot shutting down web/telnet itself and using its own servers ?

So it looks that raspbian has not a firewall, and I configured my routeur to forward 80 & 443 port to my web server. 80 is working perfectly. I get wrong, telnet is using 23 not 443, sorry for the mistake but 443 was already forwarded.
I tried with “certbot-auto --apache”, I have the same error

Telnet test fails:

telnet restosducoeur75.ddns.net 443
Connecting To restosducoeur75.ddns.net...Could not open connection to the host, on port 443: Connect failed

Please show results for:
netstat -pant
