I had a same issue and got the solution using this code below:

                  try {
                       SharedLinkMetadata sharedLinkMetadata = dbxClient.sharing().createSharedLinkWithSettings(metadata.getPathDisplay());
                       System.out.println(sharedLinkMetadata.getUrl());
                   } catch (CreateSharedLinkWithSettingsErrorException ex) {
                       System.out.println(ex);
                   } catch (DbxException ex) {
                       System.out.println(ex);
                   }

Note: If you had tried the same file to make shareable using any site or web, it will give you an exception.
