The error was: PluginError('There has been an error in parsing the file /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf on line 422: Syntax error',)

OK, I see the difference [now - my bad].

Let's focus on the error.

What shows?:
certbot certificates

and the log file:
cat /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

letsencrypt.log.txt (20.6 KB)

/var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

Here it is

I just looked at the uploaded file from post #7 and it has 422 lines in it. This is a few more than appeared in the post prior to when Rudy counted them.

The last 2 are blank lines. The parse error is for line 422. Is it possible you have some non-printable chars at the end that also got stripped off in your conversion to a .txt to upload?

It does not look like that to me. I was concerned about that during the beginning of this and created a new line at the end of the file and the error message changed from 421 to 422. Here is the octal code for the end of the file

162 155 056 167 167 167 055 154 145 055 163 163 154 056 143 157 156 146 012 012

As you can see there are two line feed values at the end of file which is appropriate.
The above octal values represent the following ASCII characters

rm.www-le-ssl.conf..

That's helpful to know the line number changed. Indicates likely a parse error in the main file rather than one of the includes.

The only other thing I noticed was a missing close to an <IfModule>. They can be nested but I never saw the matching close for both of these. Might explain why the last line is reported as failing if still looking for terminator. Simple fix to try anyway.

<IfModule alias_module>

Alias /usage.ennform/ "/var/www/usage/ennform/"
<Directory "/var/www/usage/ennform">
    Options Indexes MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Order allow,deny
    # For some reason the network range would not work
    Allow from All
    #Allow from 10.0.0.0/24 10.0.1.0/24 10.0.2.0/24
</Directory>

<IfModule alias_module>
