i m running simplesamlphp behind AWS ELB. Running simplesamlphp on port 8888. Have configured ELB to listen on HTTPS which inturn listens to port 8888 in the instance.Unless I add some self-signed certificate to the server the HTTPS doesn't work. Any thoughts?

You need to set a specific configuration when you want to use ssl verification in the ELB and not in your instance. You have to use the header X-Forwarded-Proto set by the ELB. Read this both:

ELB and Apache configuration for HTTPS website
