Hi all I got it working using this configuration:

// Start curl
$ch = curl_init();
// URL for curl
$url = "http://localhost/";

// Clean up string
$putString = stripslashes($query);
// Put string into a temporary file
$putData = tmpfile();
// Write the string to the temporary file
fwrite($putData, $putString);
// Move back to the beginning of the file
fseek($putData, 0);

// Headers
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
// Binary transfer i.e. --data-BINARY
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
// Using a PUT method i.e. -XPUT
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PUT, true);
// Instead of POST fields use these settings
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILE, $putData);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_INFILESIZE, strlen($putString));

$output = curl_exec($ch);
echo $output;

// Close the file
fclose($putData);
// Stop curl
curl_close($ch);
