Problems with con https port on a Apache mod_ssl

I have created test certificates using the openssl command. I am having problems with using this certificate in a web browser application I have created in Java. I have no problems with http requests. The certificate is self-signed and is no expiried. Could you please help me with the steps involved with making a connection to my Apache server with https.

Thanks,

Edward
