I got the same error, I have selected the paypal direct and the paypal express payment types, I got the User name password and signature from my paypal bussines account under profile and API Access. I have the sandbox option selected. I would appreciate any information you can provide in regards this issue.

if your API credentials are for your real paypal account, you must unselect 'use sandbox'

if you are using sandbox, you need to set up completely different paypal test account (search paypal for 'sandbox')
