I took over a Rails app and am trying to get the Salesforce.com API credentials set up for my user account.

I'm set as a system admin with "Developer Mode" on (though I have no clue what that does, I just saw it set on the previous account.)

We have a sandbox. I click the login link on it, enter my sandbox username ([email protected]), enter my password, and get "Login attempt has failed".

I know my password is okay since I've logged into the production site several times. Using different domains (test.salesforce.com, etc) doesn't help either.
