Hello, world!

I'm setting up a new site with osCommerce.  I went into PayPal and got the credentials, put them into the PayPal payment module, but when I checkout, nothing happens: it just redirects back to the shopping cart page with ?error_message= appended to the URL.  When I test the credentials in the admin, it says this:

Failure!

The PayPal Express Checkout credentials are not set up correctly for live production use.

array(0) {
}


What's the issue?  I'm sure I put in the credentials correctly.  What mistake might I have made?  Is there something in PayPal I haven't set?  My credentials look like this:

API Username: user_api1.example.com

API Password: ESXXXXXXXXXXXXKU

Signature: AQXXXXXXX.XXXXXX.XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXZA


What's really confusing is that the error message doesn't give me any information.  Version info according to the module:

Version: 1.2

API Version: 60.0


Thanks for your help
