I'm assuming you're attempting to use CreateRecurringPaymentsProfile with credit card information and this is what you're getting..??

DPRP = DirectPayment Recurring Payments. It's an additional feature that you have to get enabled on your PayPal account. Unfortunately, they'll charge you another $30/mo for it on top of the initial Payments Pro fee, so you'll be paying a total of $60/mo to use it.

If that's ok, you can simply call PayPal and request that they enable this for you. If you'd rather not pay that monthly fee you can get setup with Payments Advanced and use Recurring Billing instead. It's much cheaper.
