php cURL - post和echo result：“xml结构错误或编码解码错误...”

I try to post and get result by cURL, with no success yet...

Description-manual of information privider says: "In odder to send request to server you must send POST request with variable xml encoded in base64. Xml variable consist of XML special format. Examle PHP:

   $curl = curl_init();
   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://test.client-shop-logistics.ru/index.php?route=deliveries/api');
   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 'xml='.urlencode(base64_encode($xml)));
   curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Opera 10.00');
   $res = curl_exec($curl);
   curl_close($curl);

Request example:

<request>
  <function>get_order_status_array</function>
  <api_id>API_ID</api_id>
  <deliveries>
    <code>135834675500056751</code>
    <code>135834675500056750</code>
    <code>135833991800056758</code>
  </deliveries>
</request>

Here is my testing php file (testcurl.php which I try to run from my site) using testing api_id / url:

<?php

// build xml        
$xml = '
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<file>
<request>
  <function>get_order_status_array</function>
  <api_id>577888574a3e4df01867cd5ccc9f18a5</api_id>
  <deliveries>
    <code>135834675500056751</code>
    <code>135834675500056750</code>
    <code>135833991800056758</code>
  </deliveries>
</request>
</file>';

       $curl = curl_init();
       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://test.client-shop-logistics.ru/index.php?route=deliveries/api');
       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, 'xml='.urlencode(base64_encode($xml)));
       curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Opera 10.00');
       $res = curl_exec($curl);
       curl_close($curl);

       echo $res;

?>

Finally I get an error: "Error in structure xml or wrong encoded decoded: get_order_status_array 577888574a3e4df01867cd5ccc9f18a5 135834675500056751 135834675500056750 135833991800056758"

What I am missing?
