As stated in the documentation of Let's Encrypt, you have to run:

./letsencrypt-auto --apache

Then select the domains you want to secure*. Let's encrypt will generate everything you need. Then you have to link the files in the apache SSL configuration under /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf or wherever you have the configuration for your ssl certificates.

Something like this

SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/cert.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/chain.pem

*When I tested it, not all domains where shown. You might need to use the manual mode (also explained in the docs)

  • Since I didn't find much on this in the internet I wrote a blog post on it which goes through the installation step by step – maybe it helps.
