You have to manually add the self-signed certificate to your browser's list of trusted sites otherwise it will be rejected. An alternate possibility for certain testing situations with the Firefox browser is to install the add-on : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/skip-cert-error/

Here's instructions for adding your cert to the trusted list in Firefox: http://www.poweradmin.com/help/sslhints/FireFox.aspx
