> When I put in http it changes it back to https

That's common now that everyone puts re-directs in to force everyone to use https.

Can you get to the Apache logs on the remote machine? They may have more info.

The error about Java 1.8 might be a red-herring.

If the remote machine uses Perl on the backend, you might try setting the shell env variable OPENSSL_PREFIX to point on your local CentOS6 box to a newer version of openssl that handles the TLS handshake. The CPAN module Net::SSLeay uses that variable (if set) to use the specified OpenSSL library.
