I don't know the answer to your problems offhand, but a few suggestions:

* Read the version of the docs corresponding to your server version,
  not earlier or later ones.  This stuff changes.
* Look in the postmaster log to see what gets logged during a failed
  connection attempt.
* I do know about try-only-SSL, it's driven by an environment variable:
  export PGSSLMODE=require
* The docs only cover SSL in the context of psql and other libpq-based
  clients.  For JDBC you should probably ask on pgsql-jdbc.  But try to
  get psql working first.
