Unable to create new issue via the API after migrating to mac M1

[hderiau]

I have a php script that was creating a Mantis BT issue using the REST api.
After migrating from macos 10.14 to 10.26 all my apps (including MAMP, and a fresh install of mantis and reimported my database), my script is no longer able to create a new issue. I sent several hours on Gemini updating .htaccess, httpd.conf with no avail, I'm getting a 401 response

Here is my code, any input would be greatly appreciated:

Code: Select all

$curl = curl_init();

              curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
