Error while installing SSL in Apache

I am following these steps for SSL :

openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout domain.key -out domain.crt

This works fine.

openssl req -text -noout -verify -in domain.crt

Works good.

openssl rsa -in domain.key -check

> RSA key ok writing RSA key
> -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
>

> 
> 
> -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Move .key and .crt file to /etc/apache2/ssl

Open /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf

Add 

SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile      /etc/apache2/ssl/domain.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/domain.key

Next is

sudo a2enmod ssl

sudo service apache2 restart

Error is::

I would recommend you to install ssl automatically. You can do it this by only some codes:

sudo apt-get install git

git clone https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt

cd letsencrypt/

./letsencrypt-auto

After this it will ask you to accept the terms and if you want to redirect all traffic from http to https. so, you have to read carefully.
