Details

Whether to use SSL in DB connection.

This setting is only used if $wgLBFactoryConf ['class'] is set to 'LBFactorySimple' and $wgDBservers is an empty array. Otherwise the DBO_SSL flag must be set in the 'flags' option of the database connection to achieve the same functionality.

If you need to provide custom SSL certificates for SSL encryption, you should use $wgDBservers instead.
