10002:Security error Security header is not valid

[alfred_nutile]

I know this error is found in other threads but I did not see a solutions with
1. making sure the API is typed in correctly.
2. paypal account not setup yet properly
3. ssl cert error. But this is both for www.example.com

But the account works fine with paypal standalone settings and civicrm but when the gateway is set to Paypal Pro.
Looking via google this page comes up
https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=developer/e_howto_api_nvp_errorcodes

But the numeric id is 10008 and not 10002 for this error Security error Security header is not valid.
And 10002 is related to every other error they could have ( -:

Who is putting out this error civicrm or paypal to the screen?

The version of the site is 3.0.3 (tried in 3.0.2 first then updated and cleared the cache).

Any help would be appreciated.

Okay I will dig around their area for help.
Seems this really is all an issue with them and / or our settings and nothing to do with CiviCRM paypal pro.
Thanks for your time

Hmmm so far the forums talk a bit about soap but if their server does not have soap setup for php is that an issue?
Thanks

Posted at the paypal forum area and one things they asked is if I could get
"you can also try capturing the raw request you are sending out to make sure it is not getting formatted in a way that is causing it to fail with this error."
Any tips on how would I go about doing this?
Thanks

Add some debug statements to:

CRM/Core/Payment/PayPalImpl.php, line 461 or so (before curl_exec).

print_r( $ch );

should give u the contents of the curl object

u can also check the php/curl manual to see what debug options curl has
