If you have the default certificate attributes that come with Firefox it won't work since it also checks the commonName certificate attribute. Look in your about config for the values under app.update.certs.
After it fails iirc 5 background checks when there is an update available for the version being checked and iirc 10 background checks when there is no update available it will ask the user to download a new build using the url specified in the app.update.url.manual preference.
