CURLOPT_CAINFO required?

Is the CURLOPT_CAINFO in the curl_setopt_array for PayPal in order for 'live' mode to work?

So basically what im asking is do we have to have SSL in order for PayPal live mode to work, because my script i have made works in sandbox, updates my db how i want it, but only in sandbox, not live. Im not wanting to post my script here I'll open a new thread for that, im just asking a general question so hopefully it will help me, or others in the feature, i searched Google and couldn't get a solid answer.

Have a great day!

As of using curl to make connection to Paypal, if Paypal does allow plain http connection, sure you don't worry about SSL. In that case, answer to your REQUIRED question is NO. But as you see, it depends on the service you are talking to. Let's say Paypal only allows https for production server, then you have to deal with SSL, either by ignoring it or set correct cert path. Both have to be done in set_opt. And here is another qa for this: Source of PEM files for web service access
