The Certbot from the repos is old...there was some security issue that forced them to shut down something that the old version uses to create security certificates so it doesn't work anymore. the following instructions works around all that

sudo apt install letsencrypt

apt-get -t stretch-backports install certbot

sudo apt install python3-certbot-apache

the following is to get the certbot-auto script and get it running

wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto

chmod a+x ./certbot-auto

./certbot-auto

Note: if you get an error run it again. verified working on 4/29/18
