Connecting to server getting "Could not connect to host" using PHP and SOAP Ligth (PERL)

I am struggling to get some SOAP request working using SOAP Ligth and PHP on the requesting side and PERL on the server I am requesting information from. I have never worked with SOAP before.

When printing the trace, etc., the URL I am trying to connect to looks wired: "http://192.168.1.101/otrs/rpc.pl". I guess that could be part of the problem (but what do I know...). Here is the trace:

Fault message: Could not connect to host

  array(4) {
    ["function"]=>
    string(11) "__doRequest"

    ["args"]=>

        [1]=>
        string(11) "password"
        [2]=>
        string(12) "TicketObject"
        [3]=>
        string(18) "TicketCreateNumber"
      }
    }
  }
}
Fault trace: // Of some reason this ends up after the actual trace
Fault line: 37

Here is the code that generates the exception:

    try {
$client = new SoapClient(null, array(

    'location'  => "http://192.168.1.101/otrs/rpc.pl",
    'uri'       => "Core",
    'trace'     => 1,
    'login'     => "user",
    'password'  => "password",
    'style'     => SOAP_RPC,
    'use'       => SOAP_ENCODED
));


$ticketnumber = $client->__soapCall("Dispatch", array("user", "password", "TicketObject", "TicketCreateNumber"));
//Here happens a lot of things, but since this code is never reached I skip including it. 

} catch (SoapFault $fault) {
//trigger_error("SOAP Fault: (faultcode: {$fault->faultcode}, faultstring: {$fault->faultstring})", E_USER_ERROR);
echo "Fault message: ".$fault->getMessage()."\n";
echo "Fault code: ".$fault->getCode()."\n";
echo "Fault trace: ".var_dump($fault->getTrace())."\n";
echo "Fault line: ".$fault->getLine()."\n";
echo "Bad SOAP request\n";
echo "REQUEST:\n".$client->__getLastRequest()."\n";
echo "RESPONSE:\n".$client->__getLastResponse()."\n";
echo "</pre>";
exit;
}

What is the problem and what how can I fix it? Should I encode the URL...?

I included just what I thought was necessary, please let me know if I should add something. There is absolutely nothing in any logs I can include here, which I find strange itself.

I'm using OpenSUSE/Apache on the server side and Mac/Apache/PHP on the client side.

Thank you in advance!

You have an UTF-8 BOM in your URL. Use a hex-editor to get it out (and also save all files without BOM)
