Soundcloud php API The requested URL responded with HTTP code 0 - php

Question

I am getting the response below when trying to upload a file to soundcloud using the soundcloud php api.
The requested URL responded with HTTP code 0.
When trying to upload a file through the api.
It will get my data fine but not upload here is my full codeignitor controller.
I have tried all the suggested option to add the CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false but this doesnt seem to work for me can someone confirm it is working so i can narrow it down to my server.
