When I access the server through https, I am prompted to accept the self-signed server certificate (its not CA signed), but after accepting it, I should be prompted to select a client certificate to send, but I am not. I have imported one client certificate into Firefox, but there is not prompt to select it. Why is this?

Unless you have configured Firefox to prompt you every time it
generally may not prompt you but instead use the cert that you configured.

You can check if mutual auth occured by looking at SSL handshake logs
(-Djavax.net.debug=all).
