Are you able to execute any other ZAPI on the system? Is it a problem with "system-get-version" API or any API in general?

also check if 'httpd.admin.enable' option is enabled on the 7-mode system. If not, then enable it and try to run your script.

I had the same issue, but, after enable this options the connection started working properly
if you are using vfiler you need to be sure to enable this option into the vfiler also
