I have installed synapse using the following commands:

link: https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse

Installing prerequisites on Mac OS X:

xcode-select --install
sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip install virtualenv
brew install pkg-config libffi

To install the synapse homeserver run:

virtualenv -p python2.7 ~/.synapse
source ~/.synapse/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade setuptools
pip install https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tarball/master

Generate a configuration file

cd ~/.synapse
python -m synapse.app.homeserver \
    --server-name my.domain.name \
    --config-path homeserver.yaml \
    --generate-config \
    --report-stats=yes

To get started, it is easiest to use the command line to register new users:

$ source ~/.synapse/bin/activate
$ synctl start # if not already running
$ register_new_matrix_user -c homeserver.yaml https://localhost:8448
New user localpart: user123
Password:
Confirm password:

Server started successfully, but user registration failed and

i opened "https://localhost:8448" in the browser and i got the following:

Can anybody help to solve this?

Your homeserver is probably not starting correctly. Try to get the JSON response about supported versions by executing following in you shell: 

curl https://localhost:8448/_matrix/client/versions -k

This should result in a JSON response listing protocol versions:

{
    "versions": [
        "r0.0.1",
        "r0.1.0",
        "r0.2.0"
    ]
}

If that's not working - to find out the real issue you can try:

  1. Check if it's running at all with sudo service matrix-synapse status
  2. Check the log file at /var/log/matrix-synapse/homeserver.log

I will update the answer, in case you can provide more details.

The web client should be accessible at the following URL:

https://localhost:8448/_matrix/client/

However the documentation states:

(The homeserver runs a web client by default at https://localhost:8448/, though as of the time of writing it is somewhat outdated and not really recommended - https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/1527).

You should use a client such as the one at https://riot.im/app/
