I have a Premier account. Both in Magento and ZenCart I receive 10002 Security error when trying to do checkout, when configured through:

 

API Username / API Password / Signature.

 

(I carefully copied the correct values from PayPal.)

 

It looks like a PayPal bug, because the same wrong behavior in both Magento and ZenCart.

In Magento: PayPal gateway has rejected request. Security header is not valid (#10002: Security error).
