ping works,http works but https does not work for my local jboss server

I am using 64 bit ubuntu 12.04LTS. My JBOSS server is running. I can ping
my ip address well. I can access my project using [http://localhost:8080]
well but when i want to use [https://localhost:8080], it shows error in
firefox as
The connection to localhost:8080 was interrupted while the page was loading.
i have also checked my hosts file as
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 someone-pc
192.168.18.75 localhost
I have also tried google chrome,IE,that also gives error message.
When anyone wants to use my pc using my ip address he can access using
http but can not using https.
please help me.Advance thanks to u.
