Google Checkout Polling API - How do I set my SSL certificate path/use polling without an SSL?

Question

I downloaded the php sample code for Google Checkout, (from https://code.google.com/p/google-checkout-php-sample-code/downloads/list) and am attempting to get pollingdemo.php to work.

My issue is the following:

$merchant_id = "XXXXXXXX";
$merchant_key = "XXXXXXXXX";
$environment = "sandbox";
$certificate_path = "?????????"; // set your SSL CA cert path

I do not know what to enter for the certificate path. I do own an SSL certificate and it is enabled for my site. I called my hosting provider, and they did not know what I should enter there either.

Alternatively, I would like to implement Polling without an SSL, which should be possible according to this. However, I do not know how to do this with pollingdemo.php.

Thanks in advance

The constructor of ContinueTokenRequest in googlepoll.php lets you instanciate it without providing a certificate at all:

function ContinueTokenRequest($id, $key, $env, $cp = null) { ...

Did you try the code with removed certificate value?

$tokenRequest = new ContinueTokenRequest($merchant_id, $merchant_key, $environment);
