You cannot log into apps.salesforce.com using the API because Apps.salesforce.com is nothing more than an API client.  If you want to log in as a partner user you'll need to log into the naX.salesforce.com just like any other API client (replace the NAX with your instance).  Also, all API traffic is blocked for partner users that log into Apps.salesforce.com unless you add the IP address to the IP Range on the partner profile.  So this will only work if you know the IP addresses of the clients that will be logging in from using the API.

By the way, if you are using apps.salesforce.com, I recommend you move to the lastest version of the portal.  The migration guide is located here.

After migrating it will be easier to log in as a partner user via the API.
