===Payment was unsuccessful, details from Gateway: Security header is not valid===
As Satish points out, if you want to test in the Sandbox, you *MUST* generate a new set of API credentials from within the Sandbox account. The Security Header Not valid error means you are using a set of credentials that are not valid for the chosen environment. You cannot use your Live credentials with the Sandbox - they are completely separate environments.
