See, you're using -x but you're not specifying _which_ proxy to use so it uses
'--data' as the name of your proxy...

Also, your description says you should use PUT and content-type
application/xml which you don't.

I would expect the command line to be more like:

$ curl -T file-with-XML-inside -H 'Content-type: application/xml'
