A new computer will not accept the sync key taken from an older computer for the same account on a private (Weave minimal-based) server.

I'm trying to setup my Firefox Sync account on a new computer. I'm using a custom server based on Weave Minimal. There are several other computers which have synchronizing with this server with no problems for quite some time. This new computer accepts the custom server details, connects, and asks for a sync key. However, when I enter the sync key I got from one of those other computers into this new computer, it replies "Unknown Error".

I cannot get beyond this. I've tried the sync key copied and pasted from a text file in my Dropbox. I've tried removing the hyphens. I've tried the original passphrase that I used in previous versions of Firefox Sync.

Is there some tweak I need to make to Weave Minimal to make this work or do I need to try to setup the full Weave server?
