We recently installed (and licensed) Courier Express. I'm trying to get Courier to work.

I have a Dev box and a Prod Box. I'm trying to move things from Dev, into prod. I'm getting the following error:

Application Error

We’re running Umbraco 7.7.8 and Courier 3.1.6 on both servers.

The courier.config for the repositories is as follows:

<repository name="CmsProd" alias="Umbraco.cms.prod" type="CourierWebserviceRepositoryProvider" visible="true">
      <url>http://myServersUrl</url>;
     <login>CourierServiceAcct</login>
    <password>[REDACTED]</password>
     <passwordEncoding>Hashed</passwordEncoding>

I've tried password encoding "Clear", I've tried "Hashed", no go.

I've researched and found others who had a similar problem, which suggested I changed the useLegacyEncoding="true" in the MembershipProvider in the web.config. I've set that, true, i've set that false. No dice.

The user "CourierServiceAcct" is on both servers, with the same password.

The web.configs has the same Machine Key.

The servers can see each other and resolve the urls.

I'm going nuts here. Anybody have any other suggestions as to how to fix this?
