Thanks for the repsonse, I should have added port forwarding to my subject to make it a bit more clear.
I'm running strictly Linux hosts.
As I said I have a port forwarding rule from the internet port 80 to internal IP port 80, so I added an new rule to forward internet port 8080 to internal new IP port 80.
It's been several years since I set up my router and all the rules I set up worked without a problem but trying to set up this new rule has me buffaloed

Did you get a warning message when setting up the Port Forwarding that "These ports are being used by the system..."
and the change will not take effect until the router is restarted?

Nope the change went without any errors or popups,
I just changed the external port to 8000 and tried to connect to connect and this is the error
An error occurred during a connection to <my domain>t:8000. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.
