Please show the certbot command line you ran.
all I did was run this:
certbot --apache
then I did the numbers of the sites I wanted (3, 4 in my case).
then for the redirect, I entered 2.
Try 3,4 then 1.
You already have the redirection taken care of.
[whichever number doesn’t ask it to add redirection for you]
Then show the error message, if any.
[however insignificant the message may seem - please include all shown]
Still doesn’t work.
But the log looks normal.

Please choose whether or not to redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS, removing HTTP access.
1: No redirect - Make no further changes to the webserver configuration.
2: Redirect - Make all requests redirect to secure HTTPS access. Choose this for
new sites, or if you’re confident your site works on HTTPS. You can undo this
change by editing your web server’s configuration.
Select the appropriate number [1-2] then [enter] (press ‘c’ to cancel): 1

And ensure you have restarted/reloaded apache.
I go on www.mysite.com or mysite.com, it still comes up as not secure.
but when I go to https://mysite.com, it says it is secure.
OK then the problem is with the redirection only.
The cert is working fine and the site is secured.
Let’s have a look at…
grep -Eri 'servern|servera|listen|virtualh|rewrite' /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/
Nothing comes up on the terminal.
ensure you run it as root:

phpbb.conf
ServerName mainsite.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< #1

othersite.com shouldn’t have any involvement though.
It’s a completely different site that I haven’t put a cert for.
conflicts are conflicts - you will have to address them all at some point.
Regardless the mainsite.com is at issue here and now.
I have deleted the phpbb.conf and still no difference.
(Yes, Apache2 has been restarted.)
